I own a metal fab shop, would anyone be interested in either galvanized, aluminum or stainless covers for their S5s? Cardboard is a really bad idea.

I'd be interested, what kind of price do you think ballpark?

Not sure, I need to get my hands on the dimensions. I'd likely use galvanized to keep the price as low as possible. Looks like I'd need to knock out 6 holes per capping with the water jet, 4 PCI-e and 2 data ribbons. I might try to get my hands on a dead or cheap S5 locally to get proper measurements.

It would be 4 holes for the pci-e, and 8 holes for the screws since I imagine you would use the same mounting location. The ribbons would not need to be outside the cover.

Ah OK, thouhgt I'd need holes for the ribbons. Good to know. I really need to get my hand on an S5.

So, you'd be capable of fabricating water cooled sinks for S3's and S5's?

Yes, shouldn't be a problem.

I've also had someone request a full S5 case, ala S3. Going to look into that too when I find an S5.
