Good morning everyone!
So I'm finally getting ready to start my first build with a proton pack kit I bought a while back off ebay. I decided I want to start first mounting the alice frame to the mobo (unless that's a bad ide to start first). After a trip to the hardware for the spacers,bolts and etc I began to dive into the specs of where to properly place the current Mark's for the holes and so forth.
Before I began drilling and looking over the hardware I couldn't figure out why or how I was going to fit the two carrier bolts on the bottom bar because of the square head. The bottom bar was completely solid. So after doing more research I discovered an actual lc1 frame have oval openings on the bottom. Then it made sense how the carrier bolts square head would sit snug and flush in the openings.
So my question to anyone is beside it being screen accurate, is it highly recommended to go after one of these authentic frames? I dont know if the quality would be better versus the one I currently have. The tag was removed long ago and all I remember it was "fox something brand". The frame itself I believe is smaller than the traditional one used as well.
I dont mind drilling the holes and while I'm trying to get close to screen accuracy as possible. The frame is not a make or break for me.
Thank you
