Hey all,

Well, I have decided to set apon doing a small computer project in building myself a new custom computer case. My only problem is, ideas. I need helping thinking of an fun original idea for my computer case, if you have any idea please post here.


My only real criteria is this it has to be reasonably portable and have an area large enough to fit a full ATX motherboard in. I've not really got a set budget so suggest anything you like (within reason of course)

This topic isn't open for discussion, just the pitching of ideas, kthx.

im gunna go for the basics, like lots if dials (temp, fan speed etc) and lights/neons

You could try to build something similar to this.
Well, of course not an exact copy of that but you could take the idea of integrating your monitor on the side of your case, that looks pretty cool to me.

I'd prefer idea that invole just a computer case rather than a combo as I go to a lot of lan partys and space can become a big issue.

Ideas I've had so far that I like are things like a miniature Jukebox or vending machines.

I'd rather build a computer into, or to look like, an every day object rather than just a custom case.

Make a case out of a suitcase or an old speaker. You need to remove the magnets of course.

or you could try making one of these

this is cool in the extreme truely mobile pc

That was a nice video of the slow-mo welding.

Someone made a lego case - which was cool, but strong??? Plus looked kinda ugly.


Millenium Falcon case looked nice..

haha NES PC Ultra retro. Imagine carrying that in and saying lets play some NES old skool. Then it's starts playing Crysis in Hi-Def.

This ones got the ghetto blasterfunk.. Speakers are included so that's a space saver right there.

What about a mini bar fridge? Then, you wouldn't need cooling fans or water cooling for overclocking. And it could keep your drinks cold at the same time. But then a fridge kinda looks like a computer anyway. So no-one would even realise.

Fridge would be a definate nono, they are banned from lan partys.

A Nes pc would be nice, but it's not really big enough for me.

Thinking over Pass me's idea, what do you guys think about a uf1?

Get a model of a mini copper S. 1/10 size or something big. Yeah.

But I think that truck is a mini-PC also.

After a short talk with some rc car nuts I have gone against the idea of a uf1 =)

Still quite open to ideas.

garbage can

put it into an engine, like that http://www.instablogsimages.com/images/ ... mod_48.jpg
