Hi all 
Back to modding with a new victim. This time it's a NZXT Rogue, the one I've reviewed a few months ago for NOKYTECH
Not sure about the final result, like every mods I've done, it's in improvisation mode.
I would like to thanks sincerly....
Noky from NOKYTECH.NET
Joan from CRUCIAL
Olivier from DOCMICRO.COM
This Rogue is looking very good
It's made with 3mm aluminium!!
Déshabillage
Differents views
Transformation µATX in ATX
The µATX mobo tray. I've decided to go with an ATX setup, some modifications needed...
I'll need to enlarge this side...
and this side too....
and here too....
After a dremel cut
This support come from an old case.
ok, fit in place perfectly
Then I cuuted the old mobo tray to recover the part where the modo is in place.
Adjustment of the new part
This new tray will be positionned on the original one.
This tray come from an old case
after a black paint, this is the new extractible ATX mobo tray.
The front door
Now we attack the personnalisation of the front door with a MODDING.FR dremel cut
beleive me, 3 mm it's very thick!
sanded with 400 600 800 1200, I waiting for 1500 and 2000 for a better look.
I've worked on both side doors. Same punition 3 mm!! ...
The shape of the cut is ment to remind the shape of the modding.fr logo 
This mesh is for testing only.
... and for showing you my cool converses
ah and for those who don't know her let me introduce you nourchka, nounouche for her friends!
That all for the moment
Thanks for reading (and I know how hard it is to read my english....)
bye |

A small update which is not a real one, just a presentation of a part of the setup.
The mobo is a Foxconn P35A
The processor is a Q6600 g0
The ram is Crucial Ballistix Tracer DDR2 8500
I'm searching for a new video card, if I can't find a new one I'll use my old 8800 GTS
Mobo in da box!
The ram arrived - Big thanks to Joan from WWW.CRUCIAL.COM
Another part of the setup arrived too - the Q6600 G0 come from WWW.DOCMICRO.COM
For the cooling I decided to run with NOCTUA!, I have reviewed the NH-C12P a few days ago for NOKYTECH and I have really enjoyed the test result and the look!.
The 120 mm from NOCTUA are REALLY quiet and I decided to do a full NOCTUA cooling
(thanks Jakob  )
Let's go with a little cut. We can't speak about "the french touch" without a frog!! here it is.
This part will go on top of the box, better explanation in the next update....
cya !!! |

Excellent work Alonso. I keep seeing people take these Rogue's and mod them out and fitting them with full size mobo's. Makes me want one too! Looks like a lot of fun. Can't wait to see more.
Nice to see you again too!! |

Wow! Did you use a dremel to cut that out, or a scroll saw? |
