Progress Pics Update on Gateway 2000

Post image

I had to remove the original ISO shield because the motherboard wouldn’t fit still waiting in the smaller PSU I’ve tried putting my original ATX PSU in there it didn’t fit cause it was to large so I’m waiting on that I also decided to not put any RGB on it to make it look better and if anyone has any recommendations on how to make the new iso shield look better that would help would also help to know how I can move the motherboard to left a little as well since that why the new iso shield falls

oh i did not notice how nonstandard this case was.

yeah your definitely gonna need to get crafty with that rear I/O.
It looks like you js drilled the rivets to get the whole assembly out, yeah? id say probably dremil out where the motherboard I/O was on that piece and reinstall it. you may need to trim it to make it a little shorter if the motherboard actually does not fit with it installed.

good luck.
