To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
Athlon II x4 2.6Ghz
ECS GF8200A
GF 9600GT 512Mb
8Gb Kingston 800Mhz Modules
x2 500Gb Samsung
Satellite SL8600-600W PSU

Mods:
I repainted the interior of the case, now with metallic graphite paint. Also instaled tow Akasa blue led fans and one Zalman (exaustor fan), one memory cooler and one cold cathode light from Akasa.

The painting process gave me a lot of work (almost one week) and I'm buildind this case for a long time, with little mods at once. I don't have much money at the moment to make bigger mods but, I hope you like my work.

very good cable management for that case! I know what a pain they can be... no hide away places for any of the cable's, I'm actually going to rate 10 despite usually hating the case, you've done a great job.

Decent cable management for a case that doesn't really have good c/m options. I also like that kinda gun metal gray color paint job, your case looks good bro! 7/10

Why we do what we do

Very clean and professional looking rig. Lots of money cant compete with someone who truly loves what they are doing. Your computer looks like it came from a professional builder! With that case, execellent job!

Great job. The gun metal gray was a fantastic color choice.

Thanks for the positive comments guys!
That will help me keep my work and improving my case. I'll be posting the future mods.

The front and back fan grill's are worth cutting out when neatly done and replacing (the rear) with custom grill, also the side fan I'd recommend taking of the Xblade grill and again replacing with a custom grill, I did this with a job for a friend, although the overall job isn't a touch on what you have here, with the insides painted and all, it still made it stand out from the rest of the Xblade cases.

Just another thought for you to consider anyway's :)
