Morning All, Looks like I'm behind at the moment. Got to look how to order the PS with the case. Didn't see that when I was skimming the site last night. Probably missed it 'cause my eyes didn't want to stay open. Later. Be well.

Seek Knowledge First and All Else Will Follow
Hi all! Just popping in and then back out to tell you no transfer today---spending the afternoon with chores and modifying the case a little bit. Now don't panic... https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ The case is great as is--just some personal touches, that's all. BTW, I was totally wrong about the need for an extra slide bracket for the 5.25 bay--it's screw in. Not sure why they designed it that way; if ya'll ordered the extra bracket on my account, I'm sorry--wasn't paying enough attention. Not to minimize, but perhaps an "extra" won't hurt anyway--those things get bent up from time to time, and those brackets appear to be for this case only (not a generic slide bracket).
Also, a word of "warning": When taking off the front panel, go slow. You unsnap the left snaps from the inside of the case, then slooooooowly open it like a door--the right snaps will pop out on their own--don't go too fast or you could break one or both of the right snaps. (You really won't need to remove the front panel much after you get all your stuff inside anyway).
Anyhoo, I'll "check in" tonight and say howdy.
Later.

How's the renovation goin' bistro ?
Edit:
I see you posted as I was typing and thinking about your endeavor. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
I knew you couldn't leave well enough alone!
Don't tear it up or "modify" too much now, bistro.
We want you to be able to remember what it used to look like so you can help us. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

https://discussions.virtualdr.com/Well, not only do you owe me 2 bucks bistro, you are in really big trouble Mister.
You forgot to remind me to remind you to remind me to use the drop down arrow when ordering and change that little box to 4 pin to power supply instead of the default 3 pin to Motherboard.
It occured to me after re-reading Delta 11 and I frantically looked at my email confirmation. Sure enough, I had ordered the 3 pin to Motherboard. I called them. They were in the process of packing my order ! https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
They changed both fans to 4 pin. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
I could have also cancelled the slide bracket, but I decided I kinda like your idea of having the extra.....even if you were covering your butt. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ Ok...finished all the "modding". Just added some soundproofing, a bay cooler to add a little more air flow, and a small fan in the front where the hard drives are located. Ready to pull the old system apart and put it in the new case. Probably do it tonight.
Think I'll wait 'til ya'll have your cases right in front of you before I point out more things--that way you don't have to imagine it; you'll see it. Was just checking out some more sights concerning the case and saw a couple more suggestions to use either cardboard washers or very thin washers between your mobo and the "dimples" where your particular mobo doesn't have a corresponding mounting hole. You actually don't need them for the mounting holes themselves. Now, the case comes with a bag of screws that also includes 1 (only 1) "canoe clip"--just a tiny black plastic cap that pushes into a dimple--again, designed to keep whatever part of your mobo that doesn't have a corresponding hole from coming in contact with the side of the case. Wel...that little bugger really doesn't like to cooperate--tried it. Think I'll just glue a thin plastic washer on whatever dimples fall into that category.
Anyway, we'll see tonight. Will post tomorrow.
Weel, it was not worded that way.
Yipes, gots to keep her insulated https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ or sparks will fly that's for sure. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

What ?! You think you get to have sound proofing and I don't ? hummmp! https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Tell us what you did to accomplish that ? Is it like a foam board... or spray in ?
I noticed some buttons of some sort on the Motherboard Accessories (Plastic motherboard stand-off (also called clip-on feet, support, spacer, and studs) that are used to support some brands of motherboards. One set of six in three different styles ) and clicked on those, just to get a better view and they kinda look like the buttons that hold the door panel on a car door. Push in and expand or have little teeth.
I had read in one thread on 98 a few weeks ago, Mosaic, about somebody having a concern about their mother board possibly touching the case. I just "filed" it in this brain, but I am so glad you mentioned that. Is is a grounding thing? Like only when you are plugged in, or you don't want it to ever touch like the magnetism deal?
You do not want it to touch, If it does you will have a stinking mess but if it calls for a ground, that is different. I have seen and smelled soe burned board. Would pass on anymore, gladly.
Have my route all maped and printed out. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

I am here - finally. I really don't want to talk about this week, then Her Highness has incredibly good luck with her order including bragging, jumping, had the roofers over I don't know how many times i understand; she Na Na Boo Boo's me cause I can get posts to VirDr during the day, but get nothing back, so I'm really ticked on top of everything else and I won't get any better until I get a chicken recipe and probably a copy of her case order. I'm really beginning to wonder about this Twinkie business. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ and a raspberry on top of that.
How's everybody else? https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ There's not a doubt in my mind about how the QoH is feeling.
Bet you never thought you'd be doing sumpin' like this, did ya. I sure didn't.
One more thing - threatening Bistro and we have not built our computers yet. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
