searching for a case im not even sure exists, please help!!

[MatthewF01]

OK, this past week I've been looking at many galleries of case mods, and I'm really liking some of the cold cathode +window setups. So its gotten me started on a basic layout of my next computer. I think I can feel it soon, a new pc coming on.
Now, I am trying to get settled on at least a case. I know for sure that I want it to be black. Now inside, I want to put a blue cold cathode light, and I want to put a nice rounded square window on the side. But I want some of this light to shine through the front of the case a little bit, as well. I saw in a gallery somewhere, someone had a black case with a blue cathode inside, and on the front bezel of the case, a fan near the bottom, and the blue light shined out of the hole. It looked so cool, and Im kind of set on that. Is there a case that is like this, or a place I can purchase a modded case like this? I also saw clear fans on an online store, which I think would nicely accent the light shining through the hole.

Can anyone help me in my quest for this case?

Thanks!



I have a feeling I'll be in this forum a lot in a few months, when my project commenses. Ive found myself mostly in the overclocking forum before this... outcome being my 1.2 GHz Tbird running 1.4, and my DDR266Mhz running 300MHz...

good times!

There's no case in mass production that fits you description that I know of. This is for two reasons:

A) I can't think of any mass production unit that comes with a cold cathode (although one is currently being designed)

B) There are very few cases with factory installed windows, and they are mostly square-ish (Lian Li PC65, that Enermax R2-D2 looking thing).

BUT, you can get a case professionally modded with those two features on a case of your choosing.

You mean like this? My case is aluminum though.

Not sure which case you were looking at.. but that custom MacroBlack case @ bit-tech.net fits your description.

Im sorry, I didnt mean that the case already have a cathode inside, just that, if there were one inside, light would come through the front.

And neuroanatomist, I think the case you showed me is pretty close. If only that fan were like clear, I think that would be almost exactly what I want to do.

So are there ANY cases, that have a 'blowhole' on the front bezel? Ive seen that Lian Li case, with the 2 fans in the front, and it has those vent holes, but it doesnt look like light comes through there, in the pictures Ive seen.

its kind of like how the following case has a fan there, (except im not sure if he did this himself) Text

And if you put a clear fan there, light would prolly come out the front.
