    Default First mod •Thermaltake Armour•

    Its not really a big mod like many you see on here. Its a regular thermaltake Armour case I added wheels, a custom made side panel, sleeved the wires, got new fans, put in insulating foam on the bottom, and took off the annoying armour flaps.


    Anyone has any questions, ask away, i have nothing else to do...











    Thanks.

    Interesting mod, and welcome!

    It kinda puts the feel off of a prison to me; that side gate you have.

    Welcome to the boards! I dig the grill. I would highly recommend you come up with some sort of name for the mod, we add all of the finished works to our gallery and they are categorized alphabetically. If I remember correct, there are 3 other ThermalTake Armour's and at least 5 "first mods". If you can give me a title I'll move this over for you.

    I really dig the ThermalTake cases, they are incredibly sturdy and well made. A friend of mine actaully has the Armor jr. I can see why you'd want to remove the flaps on the front. While they do make it look better, its more of a hinderance than anything else. I would remove the flaps on my case but the front houses the 360mm rad.

    Whats the weight of your comp? Mine weighs in at about 60-75lbs.

    kewl mod, i love my Armor case, its the best, im planning on modding it soon... when i can get funds... anyway personally i really liked the armor flaps they give it an awesome look, and wheels personally just seem... stupid... lol, and i think having the side open like that would be bothersome, i personally like my case as dust free as possible

    Good stuff, I would worry about too much dust getting in that side panel personally although i think it looks awesome and definitely got plenty of airflow. I've seen those cases and they are big, wheels make it mush easier to move i bet especially for small stuff like connecting cables in the back or so you can get at it better when you go to clean that dust out.
