no changes for me, just uv lights, notice the tubing is greener now and the rig itself is not as lit up, much less blue in the picture

I thought UV is just UV color? Or you mean red uv reactive coolant?

That looks cool Thrackan.
It could use a little colour though. Blue would be a nice combo with your mobo.

Yeah I need more light, the case is pitch dark now and I really needed the flash. I'm going to put leds in the res first, after that who knows :D

If this runs fine for a week, I'm going to move the res up to shorten the loop, I can run everything above my GFX card with some good placement.

Just a thought (I don't know if it would work) but I am sure you could get some glass paint and paint your Uv strips like black or something and the uv will still come threw. Because they have them in most clubs right?

LOL, it looks like this



Heh.
I modded a case exactly like that years ago.

You know, I've been thinking of just keeping this case and modding it.

I went to the Enlight web site and they are STILL selling this SAME case, and also in black. It's a higher model number so they've changed a couple of things but it is essentially the same thing.

I can see how it still sells too, it was a very advanced case for its time, with removable motherboard tray (something we don't see around much on most regular cases these days), slide rails for the 5.25 drives, and a removable 3x3.5 inch drive tray also on a slide rail itself. It's easy to remove the side panels (stopped using the screws) and overall a pleasure to work with once you get to know her.

I figure since she already has a 80MM intake fan and a 80MM exhaust, I should just put a hole for a 120MM intake fan on the side and put a 80MM intake on the top also, providing today's average cooling solution. I could even mod the front to accept a 120MM to really get up there with the bad boys. She even already comes with side vents when most average cases back then didn't.

The more I think about it, the more I realize I just want to mod her, paint her black and call her my Rollin Stone.
