I painted my Antec 900 today. It now has Red innards...

Case stripped as far as it can be without removing the rivets.

About half way through the first coat

Note the feet were masked off to keep them A) black and B) from rubbing paint onto my carpet.

Further into the coating (probably about the 2nd coat)

Note the slightly orange tinge.... eww...

To counteract the orange tinge i did a very light coat of black paint, and flecked on more black by not shaking the can prior to painting.

(it looks a bit orange in this picture, but it isn't really)

Flecking on the back I/O area.

I also pugged up the large 200mm fan with Red Mesh Tulle.

And i put some more Tulle on the mesh on the side panel to make it more red.

So there is still a couple of other things I'm going to do to it. And my computer doesn't look too great when all the BLUE LED fans come on, as it neutralises the colour a hell of a lot. So i'll be replacing them soon.

What do you guys think?

Here's something I'm experimenting with. I got some black lights and glued some slinkies onto them that I got from one of those quarter machines at the dollar store. I also stuck them on my round cables which glow bright but for some reason doesn't show up in the pictures. Maybe it was the quick click drowning it? What's something fun I can do with more of my slinkies?

@DecomposingStar - Looks amazing...congrats! :D

Thanks!

Hey DecomposingStar I just got that exact case the other day :)

It's so cold with all the fans around it now.

It's a wicked case :)

Yeah my feet get cold while i'm on my computer. Awesome case!

whoa now! Most of the reviews I see on motherboards foxconn easily competes against bigger names like ASUS, Gigabyte, Abit, and DFI.

That's why i bought the motherboard. The reviews are wrong, Foxconn suck. Really.

Most of the features that the display box mention are not actually included, or completely inaccessable, or useless.

Heres one, in order to get a good overclock, i've had to update my BIOS, you wouldn't think thats a problem but it really, really is, as the program they use for BIOS updates SUCKS and they give no alternative. After succesfully updating, i was able to push my overclock a bit further, however, it resets the BIOS to the older version after you restart (as in, boot up in to windows for the first time after saving from BIOS).

They really, really, really suck. Trust me, i've had endless problems with it.

time on what? tidying the inside of a computer?

easy to maximize airflow !

the cooler the case the better your componets preformance espicaly if you over clock!

i did a bit of re-tidying:

dsc00064im1.jpg

nice can you tell me what you useing to incase all the wires please im looking to tidy up my case as well

I concur, Foxconn generally make poor motherboards. The fact that Foxconn produces components that are present on 99% of motherboards and systems is irrelevant.

Well... Its a good quiality build motherboard, its just chinese crap when it comes to everything else is all... Even the instruction manual has grammatical and spelling errors that could have EASILY been sorted out.

Well this was just plain guerilla. The price was close to most trusted brands, the reviews said it was good, the website said it was good, it had good features, a good but plain bundle... Little did i know it was intirely made with Chinese pride....

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.3 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display.
