Part 2: Kalinka! Modding Between Moscow And Siberia

This time, we're looking at steel computer cases instead of the Iron Curtain. A few of the case mods are really hot (in the truest sense of the word). Others are much more inventive-looking. Either way, it's good to know modding is international.

Futuristic

Now that is a design!

Blue Bike (1)

The only thing missing is a driver...

Blue Bike (2)

...the rest is just like it should be.

Bright Barrel (1)

Well, it kind of looks like a barrel...

Bright Barrel (2)

...but at least it lights up...

(Not Exactly) Precision Work

Solid Siberian blacksmith work from a first-year apprentice. Since then, someone used it to build a piece of armor.

And Another Engine

This isn't the biggest engine, but it's an eight-cylinder design nevertheless.

And What Is That?

This seems ready for takeoff.

It Is Alive!

And if not, at least it is bright.

    18 and 19 were both amazing!
    I'd love to have that V8 revving up for me.

    And for 19, wow. Just wow. Is that the pinnacle of water cooling right there?

    #19 is Heavy duty. Looks much more hardware than that Coolmaster HAF. Looks like a stealth bomber.

    8 is the nicest imo. I'd rather have straight lines though and no SLI logo though but still very nice.

    These Ruskies are good.

    That wall coming down was just the best thing.

    If Phazotron - NIIR were to get into CPU cooling in the same way they competed with us years ago in terms of military radar tech ...

    Pity their fabs are not competitive ... but in terms of instrumentation / cooling / power engineering, they are right up there.

    Sorry for the shameless plug ...
