[QUOTE="ryan20021982, post: 330648, member: 78143"] Well I decided to get a new HTPC case I saw this on ebay and had to get it I love the clean look to it. First I had to remove everything from the old case and get it all ready to go in the new case. Then I took replaced the cpu cooler with this Silverstone one [url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835220030]Newegg.com - SILVERSTONE NT07-AM2 80mm CPU Cooler - CPU Fans & Heatsinks[/url] I replaced the fan it came with to a Silenx fan The two case fans were already Silenx fans when I got it Then I replaced the 120mm fan in the psu to a Silenx [IMG]http://i531.photobucket.com/albums/dd352/ryan20021982/S3010142.jpg[/IMG] I had to find a good way to mount the hdd since I use a 2.5" IDE and my dvd burner is also IDE and there was no slot under the dvd drive for a hdd so I had to improvise since the IDE cable wont reach over to the hdd bays which I removed anyways. I hooked the hdd to the bottom of the dvd drive mount with a zip tie and put some foam inbetween just so nothing vibrated [IMG]http://i531.photobucket.com/albums/dd352/ryan20021982/S3010139.jpg[/IMG] I had a usb IR receiver and I wanted to mount it in the case and since this case is made to take a OLED screen in the front it had a piece of clear plastic already in it, so I took my usb receiver and poped the cover off and mounted it in the case right behind the window [IMG]http://i531.photobucket.com/albums/dd352/ryan20021982/S3010140.jpg[/IMG] Then of course I had to neaten up all the wires so it looked nice [IMG]http://i531.photobucket.com/albums/dd352/ryan20021982/S3010141.jpg[/IMG] System specs are Omaura TF8 case Biostar 7050PV/nForce 630a AM2 mobo AMD 4850e 45w cpu Leadtek 8500GT Silent Edition Low Profile HDMI 4 GB DDR2 800 ram ( it was cheap) 120GB Samsung 2.5" hdd Lite-on dvd burner Sunbeam Hush 550W psu Here are some pics of the front and back [IMG]http://i531.photobucket.com/albums/dd352/ryan20021982/S3010147.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i531.photobucket.com/albums/dd352/ryan20021982/S3010148.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
