Maybe the colors and leather are very individually and not for everyone, i see alot of hard work and dedication also hand fabrication that deserve attention.

Well done !

At first glance I thought it was a stock white case with white components thrown in for a theme.
Not my style, sorry. I prefer a more visual change to the external for mods.

Did you even consider this might be the owner or employee of MetallicAcid?

He even listed it has his home page

I really don't care if the title fits with what's in the pictures. In my opinion, it's the beautiful computer i've seen.

This is an incredible case. Not only did a lot of work go into it, but it looks amazing. That white leather goes perfectly with the white mustang I'll buy one day. 10/10 easily.

What are you talking about? Look at what? Easy order what? Let's take a look at your case mentioned as "poor" in your specs! Can't find it here... How 'bout it? o_O

I'm not sure what picture those people who are leaving comments saying "you didn't do anything" are looking at but as I see it, this is a very clean and super detailed build. He's done panels, painting, SUPER clean wire management, I'd love to see anyone of you attempt a build this clean. It's stylish and sophisticated, I can't see one component that he didn't mod. I'm sure allot of hard work and effort went into this build and I for one am grateful that MetallicAcid took the time to build something as freaking awesome as this... keep up the clean builds.

on a side note.. .what material did you use for panels? Acrylic? I love how you added the leather and the color scheme. Totally thinking outside the box on this one. The paint job looks flawless.. I love it. How hard was it to fab the metal piece on your graphics card? I'm amazed you managed all that custom work into one little cube lol.

*edit* I've looked at many builds on this site, but today was the 1st day that reading the comments that say "you didn't do anything" or "looks like it just came out of the box" got to me so I had to make an account just to comment...
