  • SOLD

    ~~High end 'mid tower' case with lots of space for disks and stuff and the latest quiet computing/efficient air flow features - so the PSU fits in the bottom and it has a fan pointing upwards in the top as well as a rear fan and there's various places in the front you can fit extra fans. Comes with the top and rear fan and a controller so you can vary their speed. Full info here:

    I've modded the case slightly to take out the pieces of mesh covering the top and rear fan and replaced them with standard fan guards for better air flow:

    In great nick apart from two scratches on one side of the case it picked up when we moved house (see third picture). Comes with all the original bits/manuals (see internal shot). Was used as a Hackintosh case, hence the stickers, but they'll come off fine.

    Great quality - the cheapest you can get these new at the moment is £99 delivered. [s]£40 £35~~ £30 - pick up from Lower Clapton only.[/s]

  • How was the hackintosh experience? Been tempted to try it since Apple won't make a mid tower...

  • Much better the second time round (I first built one in 2008 or 2009, then again last October).

    I can highly recommend using one of the Customac builds from tonymacx86 as that's essentially what I did, using unibeast.

    It's a lot, lot easier than it used to be to get a system that works exactly like a real Mac, is just as stable but way more powerful and flexible for a fraction of the price.

  • This is my new spec :)

  • viola decided this wasn't for him due to the case modding I did, so this is still going.

  • @Fox - What MoBo you using? Tried my hand at this not long ago using tonymacs advice/guides. Struggling to find a DSDT setup for my motherboard. Any tips?

  • Sorry only just saw this - a Gigabyte B75M-D3H. He actually recommends a B75M-D3P but the H is cheaper and easier to get over here and works fine. I actually use a DSDT free setup which is only possible with Gigabyte motherboards as I understand it. Used to have an Asus which needed a DSDT and more kexts.

  • Price dropped to £35 if you come and pick it up this weekend!

    Otherwise it's going on eBay.

  • BUMP. I never did get round to putting this on eBay, so price drop to £30.

    Cheapest I can find these online from somewhere reputable is eBuyer who would like £111.50 for it delivered!

  • Fox did this sell? I know it's a bloody old thread. I'd be willing to pay postage too.

  • PM'd but yes afraid so, I forgot to go back and edit it. Now done.
