i am kinda lucky since i live close to that big wall of computers that xtaticego posted, so i paid a visit to the wall today and selected my case for the 1st anniversary contest and here it is.

the only thing i can actualy tell you about the case is that its a gateway, hence the name ''the gate to newmodcity''.

the only problem is i have absolutly no idea what to do with it, i figure a window, and for sure some fans, but i dont know what else. a window and some fans are not going to cut it cause newmodcity is home to some great modders.

That would hurt, steel cases are going to leave a mark :blackeye: .

Make sure you put some Bond-O on there.

i have a few things done, as far as deconstruction goes, got the 3.5'' drive cage removed, bezel sanded how i want it, drive bay covers installed, exaust fan whole opened up. wholes marked for cable manament. i have room enough to mount a 120mm intake, plus the front bezel of this case has lots of air flow, so i will not cut a big whole in the front of the case wich means no bondo work, i will leave the bezel shape as it is, most of this mod is going to fall on my paint i think. im not planning anything spectacular, it will be simple, efficient, and sexy, i will put my time in the details this time. there will also be a window.
Image
this is a 5.25'' drive bay cover from an old case i used my pocket knife, and a file to get the shape i wanted then used some super glue to put it into its 3.5'' home.
Image
the way the paint and everything on this case is now, i must say its one of the ugliest cases i have ever worked with. there is more ugly on this case then a rolling stones group photo. but i hope to change that.
