Possible Show Idea

Hey I was looking at my boring computer case the other day and was thinking hmmm I'v done the fan mods,

I'v done the case fan speed and temp controller, but there is still a HUGE blank space on the front of my Antec NSK 3480 case.

Then it hit me what if i put second monitor in the front ether vertical or move the USB headphone and mic ports to be able to make it horizontal,

Ether way you would be able to display a huge amount of info or data on this small screen,

Like your screen gadgets or in game information PC stats or even chat programs like skype, vent or teamspeak for the gamers.

Just an idea but I like to think an awesome one

your new fan Rhyno

Not a bad idea and shouldn't be to hard. Maybe an arduino and then a program that sends data over serial. Great idea in my mind.

Yeah I was thinking at first of just ordering a monitor or just the LCD at the size i want that is on a recomended list of a LCD controller card and running from the controller a cord that plugs the screen into ether the HDMI VGA or DVI plugs in the back but routing the cords, figureing out what controller and what screen and all sorts just yeah thought it might be something I havn't seen anyone do before. damn I talk to much lol

I though you were just talking about like a two line lcd. Like a hitachi and it would display some info. I didn't realize you were talking about a color lcd . Sorry. I think what would also be cool is if instead of just a one color led case mod, you should take the rgb signals from vga and then have leds change based on the overall color of the image on the screen. Just an idea. I did something like that but used it to control a couple dmx lighting rigs. Anyway, good luck

thanks dude that sounds mad but yeah think this sort of thing would be awesome as a show idea sincs there isnt alot you can do with a PC as for making it smaller like the X Box laptop since they have already done that with a laptop lol. Would be good to see some PC mods on the show for once
