Painted my Dell Dimension 3000 Case :3

Great. Now go play some old school runescape on your P4 and fuck off.

Cool. Really looks

You put more effort into that case than Dell ever did.

>>59139651
I've got one of those things. Why did you have to ruin it?

>>59139780
I had more than one i kind of hoard computers. It was the one i thought would look nicest with paint, and it turned out pretty well.

>>59139670
you do know that just because a case is old doesn't mean the components inside it have to be old right

>>59139651
Clean up around the dell logo on the side

>>59139825
Lol that's why i didn't dignify a response to him. The components inside are of course modern parts. :3

miami dolphins suck bro

>>59139651
Is that some 'go 'za?

>>59139651
Nice.

>>59139974
I wouldn't know i just went with my favorite color scheme (would've been teal and pink, but pink was to eye rapey)

>>59139990
i don't understand the question?

>>59139651
Nice paint job, get an actual sexy case though. That one's only cool for nostalgia.

>>59140026
I kinda prefer the nostalgia. The only instance in which i'd switch is if i were given a hyper beast nzxt case. then i'd jump at it. But this works and i'm very proud of it.

>>59139651
Neat paint job, but that thing must have terrible ventilation if you're putting any real hardware in there.

What type of paint did you use? Vynl paint?? Primer??

>>59140079
just spray paint i bought from the store. the biggest thing is you need to sand any surface really well and then clean it. then spray it wait spray again give it like 2 or 3 coats and it'll be great

homosexuality is a sin anon

>>59140130
good thing im an atheist

>>59139779
Thank you Anon :3

>>59139651
Did you use powder coating?

>>59140180
No just spray paint. The trick is sanding the surface before painting. i've had friends just spray that's paint the paint won't stick to smooth surfaces

>>59139651
I have the 2400. Thanks for the inspiration! I may consider putting some neat modern parts into it, giving it the 2004 aesthetic with the modern feel.
I don't know what software I'd put in it though, and the case would need special modifications in order to hold a proper mobo....


I also have no idea what games can run on a P4 (If I didn't replace the mobo..) That would be the appeal of this system imho, gaymes.

I don't like it, but it looks nicely done

>>59139651
That's a nice color combo - good job!

I managed to fit modern hardware in it just fine (not sure about a 2400 though) but im glad i inspired you! if you need any help with painting it just let me know.

use lead paint, it helps heat sink functionality
