lol.. I wish there was.. Working around 70-80h a week.. I'm lucky to get enough time to sleep for the next day.. I'm hoping to get around with this maybe next weekend at lease.. I gotta think on how I'm going to cut the back of the case for the panel..

Yeah, I want to do a panel for the back.. I'm not going to place the PSU up top like they have it, so I want to make a panel that doesn't have it. Do something different instead for the area.

Stuff gotta play with..

Blu-ray drive housing
Ssd drive housing
Power Supply housing reworked for front.

And your idea for the res seems novel too. I'm looking forward to seeing it.

Hey CS, have you considered a 2 in 1? That case is so huge, I'm sure you could fit a air cooled micro in too!! :laugh:


Hey, I was just thinking the same thing ;)

I'm going to grab some carbon fiber vinyl from FrozenCPU and try a panel on it.. then since I got so much plywood, I'll play with a silver paint...


Hows that to see?

Udate:

All right, I got a nice little update for you all! Well, not the one I wanted.. It seems even if I order the products, two different places, with the SAME shipping, it'll flop on ya one way or another.. well.. Not really since FrozenCPU has one more day to get here. 2-3day shipping..


But: Here you go!





















Now, now.. why did I get a silver back and a black block?? Well, the silver back was in stock.. Black wasn't.. But, I have something in plan for them both before going on the card!


Won't be till Next Wednesday probably.. Work is going to be fun the next 4 days.. lol

I don't think there will be.. I have the black block instead of the plexi.. I think if I got the plexi, do to me having to heat it up for application, it would probably do something.

Know any good ways to do latching set-up for the side panels? I don't feel like "screwing" the whole side off every time I want to open it

That would be different, but the side panels can cut off your foot if you don't hold it while unscrewing the screws.. So, I don't even want to know what would happen if I did that.. Plus, knowing me, I'd yank it and rattle the case apart.. :roll:

The other alternative I can think of is modding the case to accept the same kind of mounts you see on many kinds of home speaker grills:

Thanks for the thoughts T-ski.. I was thinking of.. I still have my Cooler Master Case.. Almost taking it apart for the latching system... Don't know yet..


UPDATE.. well big one coming Saturday. I'll have all the plumbing ready to get the system under water!!!
