The beginning
This is my first mod and I have to admit it is very ambitious, but i will continue to complete it. As the name suggests the mod is going to be a laptop; made using an atx motherboard and a 20″ screen as portability is not an issue for me as i don’t mind how big the brick gets.
The spec. is as follows: A-bit AV8 3rd eye motherboard, socket 939 AMD athlon 64 3500+, nvidia geforce 7800 G, 1GB ram, 160GB laptop hard drive, slot loading slim dvd drive, 20″ acer LCD screen.
The laptop case will be made out of: Carbonfibre panels, drain pipe, atx case mother board tray (cut down) and aluminium edge strip.
WOW - ambitious indeed. Will watch out for further progress and updates. Lots of lovely pictures please.
i cant wait to see how this goes, lol you picked my mates gamer tag haha, he’s had that tag since day one ^_^ he’ll be impressed to know that someone is using it for somethingg other than gaming, but seriously good luck dude i hope we get to see the end result some time soon =]
Great concept. I look forward to seeing your hinge solution. That part’s a B*tch!
oh boy, you’ve certainly got alot more dedication than i have. I was thinking of doing a standard box, for a media centre PC(no fancy case though). I am still sitting on my hands because i don’t have enough for the mobo and graphics card yet. I wish i had the determination and imagination you have. i would probably never think of mal=king my case from such household parts. Good luck mate, you are an inspiration.
