yes, the case is made entirely out of lego, even the supports for the motherboard and drives.

i still have to paint the drive faces for the floppy and burner, install the two 5mm blue LEDs and the 80mm blue LED Antec fan.

and it only took me 3 hours to build it.

I've been thinking about doing that for my 11yo son ... He's a hardcore Legomaniac.

[cavemanmoron]

Far Out man!

$200 worth of lego would get a VERY fancy retail case........


That's harcore modding for you. :Q

 

[deerslayer]

Very nice!

How loud is that system? I would imagine all that plastic issolates a lot of the sound.

---editted to add---

$200 worth of Lego's... I think you got ripped off by ther store who sold you the things.

it is much quieter with the lid on, it drowns out most of the noise from the fans.


regarding the $200 worth of lego, it took over 1400 pieces to build, all of which were ordered online because you can't buy bricks like this in bulk from a store. i bought them all from brickbay.com and got reasonable prices on most of them. One of the stores i bought them from was considerably higher, but he had the most pieces available and some that i could not get anywhere else so what are you going to do?
