Slim clear ghostcase

[Themonk]

Thought I would post some pics of my ghostcase for my slim.

It was a right pain to fit but I'm happy with the results.

Looks sweet mate. I'd also change the LEDs on the ROL to blue and white. That would top it off for me.

Was thinking of doing that mate. Done my 1 controller to clear with blue LED mod. They are extremely potchy to change though mate.

no they aint if you have the right tools and you can solder correctly they are very simple to change.

if you cant do it i wil sell you a ring of light with blue leds in it if u want ?

I have to get me one of those clear cases! I'd also like to make the spinning discs viewable instead of having that ugly cover on the ODD. I don't care too much for the LEDs though (except only the ones on the CoolRunner).

I'm yet to change LEDs. I was hoping they would come in the post today.....but they didn't :-(. Hopefully tomorrow I can give it a shot.

But once again that's a bad ass case. Good job mate.

Got it from amazon mate. They also do a Kinnect case to match so gonna change that next.

Just had a peak on their website. That kinect case looks sick!

Just out of curiosity what was pain about fitting it?

Nice btw!

no metal cage? all plastic? what are the repercussions of having the mobo mounted on that type of case.

Hi,

It is just a very very tight fit. Especially getting the front facia on at the end as it clips into place simular to the back.

no metal cage? all plastic? what are the repercussions of having the mobo mounted on that type of case.

The metal cage that the mobo sits in is still there. Just removed the top metal grill. However you can keep it if you want, I just prefered the look without as the blue LED's look nicer without the top section.

My mate got one of these, and I have to agree... it's a complete sod to fit!

Took both of us to hold the face plate and top half of the case in place while the other person slotted the bottom half into place. Looks goddamn awesome though.

Looks good Im gonna have to do something like this

 

[DrunkenNinja]

Is it actually called "Ghost Case"? if it is the plastic those guys use is junk, it has no flex whatsoever and will crack in the worst possible places, I can also vouch for the poor fit also, it has to be set perfectly for it to close properly, I still have one of these on my ancient Xenon (PHAT).

I later heard from other case modders that the XCM cases are the real deal, didn't try one but havn't heard anything bad about them.

 

[Themonk]

Yes it called ghost case. Haven't heard of the xcm ones. Will have a look.
