Hi, in tech for my GCSE courswork im gona make a pc case, except its gona be a windows media center style pc, i.e. designed for under ur TV, does anyone have any ideas about wot features they would like to see from the case?

please dont say things about computer spec as im designing the case only.

stealthed drives
make the button to eject the drive illumate with cd activity.
an ir remote connection..
a second montor that is a touch screen(or just media buttons )
illuminated power switch and the reset switch to be illumenated with drive activity

send me a check so i can do something cool

ok, this is all helpfull, any more ideas?

I was planning on using light almost as a material, so u can expect a lot of light on the unit

When one person last year made theirs they did somethin similar. However, they got the school to also submit them for GCSE elctronics as well as resistant materials and made the case then also an alarm for it and got two GCSES lol

give it some flashy neon lights with LED fans and so on.

Don't forget to give it at least 3 LED fans

Use Pro Desktop to design it That'll get you some marks

yeah thats wot i am doing, ive spent ages learning pro dekstop and im not gona put that to waste, but i wana know wot things you would want on the case.

3 fans would be too loud!

Try a few good old light sensitive multicoloured LED circuits on the case...if you're doing electronics as well, how cool's a PC that lights up in the dark...

Where the fuck have you been buying your fans? You can get completely silent LED fans for like $9 each

i know which fans u r talking about, and they are really quiet, but when some people watch a film, they get really anoyed by the slightest noise
