i bought a mountain mod ufo-2 opitmax a few months back
looked a great case. like this 1 but powder coated black.

but when i got it i was not happy with certain things about
it and had changed my w/cooling designs. so i started with
the dremel & opened up the 2 front 120mm blow holes to
take a 360 rad then i opened up the 3 rear 80mm blow
holes to take a 240mm rad. this is a old photo done a few
more things to it seen this was taken.

i wanted to replace the side panels with uv acrylic after
seeing all the great mods on this forum. and come up with
some designs for better cable management. but i been
saving up for the acrylic money a bit tight atm.

then today i thought id pop onto the mountain mod site and
see if there was any thing new on there. grrrrrrrrrrrr there was :duh:

hehehee

bit or a bummer

[zittware]

yeah. It happens.
Kinda hard to be first on the block these days... gotta have an original idea which is completely off the wall to be sucessful.

BTW: I think I might have inspired moutainmods to come up with this design. As far as I know Attn2Detail was the first to implement plexi on top of one of their cases.

Since MM is spying on you.... :h34r:

Hey Ben, how about using my billet switch panels (http://mnpctechcom.temp.powweb.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=274&cat=555) in your cubes?! :D

[dutchcedar]

^^^ You wouldn't be suggesting that they might be interested in a [cough] billet modified one-off [cough] done by some prominant modder, eh? :D

[crazyknight]

And speaking of spying on my PC...I had just plugged my Dremel in for a fresh charge after working on my vandel-switch plate!!!:duh: when I clicked in here to see yours. MNpctech, thats a lot better looking then the one I am working on...how much would you sell one for?
