 Re: Project "Ioncito" [Warning 56k]
I've never seen anyone use leather before, very cool!

 Re: Project "Ioncito" [Warning 56k]
I agree! That makes for a very unique looking case. I like the layout, and you've got some great hardware there. I can't wait to see what's next.

 Re: Project "Ioncito" [Warning 56k]
I'm glad you like it guys! Here's a little modification i've done to the Atom/Ion heatsink: Tiny bench  : Here you can see the ugly "rubberish" thermalpad Zotac used to help the Atom touch the heatsink (theres a height diference of .8 - .9 mm between the CPU and the nVidia chipset): Here you can see it all cleaned: Tuniq TX2 + .75 mm copper plate to help the Atom reach the heatsink: Temperatures running Street Fighter IV Bench BEFORE the modification: And After:  I think -20°C its a great improvement. BTW: The CPu is OCed to 2.0 Ghz 24/7, and today i got the WR at hwbot with 2189Mhz

 Re: Project "Ioncito" [Warning 56k]
Wow, that's a nice overclock on the Atom. It's certainly something that is attempted a whole lot.

 Re: Project "Ioncito" [Warning 56k]
This is gorgeous work! I love the use of leather in it. Adds a sense of sophistication to it. Keep going!

 Re: Project "Ioncito" [Warning 56k]
Oh man, that sleeving is looking awesome! The black case with white cabling is a killer combo.

 Re: Project "Ioncito" [Warning 56k]
Even if you could find someone to ship to Argentina, I suppose international shipping would be a little steep, huh?

 Re: Project "Ioncito" [Warning 56k]
It shouldnt be that bad (time during shipping would be the prob) I just sent one of my modded 4870s to Brazil and it was only $30. (with a heavy steel cooler)
I have sent my mods/cases all over the world and the cost isant that bad (USPS flat rate boxes are nice) However since gas prices went up to $4 it seems to take quite a bit longer for stuff to get there.(used to be 4 days now about 7)
Did you check with MNPCTech?

 Re: Project "Ioncito" [Warning 56k]
Good call with MNPCTech Mark. I'm pretty sure they ship internationally.

 Re: Project "Ioncito" [Warning 56k]
Excellent work with the sleeving. I know it can be a very time consuming job, but the results are so worth it!

 Re: Project "Ioncito" [Warning 56k]
Yeah, all of these little details are starting to add up. It seems like you are headed towards a black and white color palette, very cool!

 Re: Project "Ioncito" [Warning 56k]
Very nice job, particularly on the bends on that frame. The leather is definitely unique as well. Watching!
