I somehow lost my old PS2 case i was going to mod, has anyone ever done this before? the thing is darn small but i could see there being enough room for a micro atx =) might have to cut a hole in the top to allow the HSF to stick out though.


Anyway just curious



Also, I tried mods in the past with dremel and on hard metal even with good bits I still didnt get very far, any other better tool that dremel?

thanks

Maybe a jigsaw with a hacksaw blade, but you should clamp down whatever you are cutting. People also like roto zips, kinda like a dremel only bigger. I dont have one so I cant give you any first hand tips about them.

I thought I had tossed it but I found the case, so Im going to consider modding it again =) just that this stuff is some heavy duty metal :p
