Hi,
I had a old ATX case and my current ATX case is really a peice of c***
So, I decided to put my new computer into the old ATX case but... big problem, how will I screw my motherboard?! There is no peice of metal with all the things that you screw your motherboard in it! I took my new ATX case (the peice of c***) and I took that peice of metal. Another problem! It is too long. So, I cutted it. And, I did some holes to hold the peice of metal. Not bad eh?

Here is the pictures:

The cut that I will do on the side:

The other side of the computer (the blue sticker is a sticker of the Departement of Education of New Brunswick)

The back:

The inside of the computer, as you can see, there is no peice of metal to hold the motherboard.

The front without plastic:

The inside of the computer, I added the peice of metal to hold the motherboard.

I still need to paint it, I'm waiting for my cut-off wheels to cut my window on the side (as you can see on the pic), and, I'm waiting for my drive bay plastic cover.

Any comment would be apreciated...

yea man you must like modding what are you using to cut the metal a dremmal or a jigsaw or what else?

I'm using a pair of cutting grip or metal :p (Don't worry I will use the Dremel for the side of the case)

Here is some new pic
