extremetech.com — Not only does this R2-D2 case mod look incredibly like the original, it's bundled with a P4 processor, Radeon GPU, and cooling system that runs R2 at a chilling -38 degrees celcius. Awesome!!

  • tastypastry, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1it doesnt matter who should get the credit. what matters is who gets more diggs. and its clear this one is the better one.
  • mistermoose, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0What's up with the ad in the slideshow?
  • jervana, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0haha, okay nacc76. find it hard to believe then.

  • jervana, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hey ncaa76,

    sorry bud. didn't get a "duplicate" notification before i posted.
  • tribalsun, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0@ ncaa76 - Well that is the name of the title. What should he have titled it, the "Star Wars Astromech Droid Case Mod"?

    Relax. :-)
  • ncaa76, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I really find that hard to believe
  • GuyHersh, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0lol i find it funny when the people who dont get promoted to the front page get all pissed off. I dugg this one just because you were a prick ncaa76.. normally i would digg the first one to be submitted..
  • danio, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0yeah you can overclock like wutwut
  • SVPirate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That's so damn cool - in more ways than one?
  • Guano, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Really? That's crazy. Is the performance benefit that great?
  • danio, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0no it does operate at -38 its vapochill its like a grand or something around that price
  • Guano, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I think it's operated at 38 degrees C rather that -38.
  • RichMan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0this is sweet, it'd be great if he made parts of the case into devices so it could be more like the R2D2 we know from the movies. Like, spinning head with whistle sounds, adapter that comes out of chest-area, and lastly the ability for it to move around.

    For the moving around part, i'm sure you could mod a Roomba for it. It'll move around, and as an extra plus it can clean your room!!
  • jervana, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Damn, Digg didn't even notify me before I posted.

    Oh well.
  • magichindu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Actually I should get the credit. I submitted this story from PimpRig 21 days ago. Just look at my stories submitted
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0hes overclocking it from 3.2 to 3.7 so it should be.
  • ncaa76, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0By the way, thanks badmofo for caring at least someone does.
    Undigg!
  • Dabellah, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I find it hilarious how touchy some people are about dupes... It happens, get on with your life
  • jervana, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The thing weighs 100 pounds!!
  • NSXROX, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The way everything is stuffed in there, looks like it should make a nice fire hazard.
  • fastfood15, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0dupe
  • OswaldKenobi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"What you will notice is that this story is no longer on the front page because enough people reported this story as a dupe (under the 'problem' pull down menu). So before you go running off at the mouth about stuff you have no idea about; read the guidelines for digg, noob!"

    Someone seems to suffer from massive insecurity and needs to be a bigshot on the internet to overcompensate.

    Dugg this story because it was the first I saw. Seriously, ncaa, get over yourself.
  • OswaldKenobi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"Know your place before you speak, rookie!"

    OMG! I've been a memeber of a website longer than you! I'm so cool!
  • ncaa76, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0What you will notice is that this story is no longer on the front page because enough people reported this story as a dupe (under the "problem" pull down menu).

  • TWiTsoldier, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0You know, I'm going to digg this post and not ncaa76's just because he's a dick.

    Like, OMG NOOOOOZ, jervana submitted it a whole 2 hours later than you did! Big whoop. He said he didn't know yours was already there, get over it. Besides, this is the one that showed up on my RSS feed.
  • ncaa76, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0TWITsolider, the reason why this story showed up in your RSS Feed is because this was the story that made it to the front page. Stories need to be dugg first before they make it to the front page or your RSS feed.
  • ncaa76, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I love how people that have been using digg for less then a week, act like they know what the hell they are talking about, dabellah; with how many stories sent to the front page? Know your place before you speak, rookie!
  • ncaa76, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0Dupe! Jack ass, same name too
