Wow, I hadn't thought I did this much to caust trouble
well, anyways, here goes:
Lord P. You're somewhat correct in your assessment of this mod, I made it extremely simple. If you re-read the text in my article I said I made it simple, intentionally. Of the folks who read this site, maybe 1/20 or 1/30 have done any case mods before. Not many at all. So if I started out showing them how I did a super complicated mod and all that stuff, well, I woulda lost the intended audience. The guys who frequewn your site are a bit different in this respect, they head to your place forr more advanced mods. Its all in the audience, man.
Cutriss- You just stepped into a rats nest of trouble there, which I'm not getting into right now. What you're basically talking about is something I mentioned a while ago in an article on modding. Its not neat or pretty to start up. Then about the plexi/EMI thing, well, its been talked about and it is something that people generally dismiss. I Have never heard of people having unusual troubles with a plexi case or window added.
amistadcliffman- No real changes in noise with or without a window. I actaully took the chance to knock the side fans to 7V while I had the case apart doing this.
Aaron- get a holesaw and just put fan holes in your window
