To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
DFI SLi-DR
AMD Fx-55 w/xp120 & TT120mm
OCZ EL gold 2x512
7800 GTX W/80MM
Vantec Stealth 520w
80gig Raptor
NEC 3250A
TT TENOR

Mods:
AMD logo cut out on top of the case. Windows on each side of the case. Removed shroud and fan from 7800gtx and mounted a 80mm fan (dropped atleast 7-10 degrees on idle and load). Removed the hard drive/brace. Used the floppy brace to hold the raptor and cut the brace to mount a 80mm to blow on the raptor

This case was one hard case to mod...no, i am serious i mean real hard. TT i swear makes cases out of tank armor. my poor dremel went through atleast 30-40 cutting wheels. not to mention on the sides i had to use a 4inch grinder.took alot of time and i spent around 30 bux for the plexiglass/dremel cutting wheels/nutts and bolts.

Looks great man. Love the window, looks very clean. The only thing I dont like is that its off center. Other wise great. 9/10. I have the exact same cable modem and router. :-D
 
Nice system you've got there. I have to go with POGE though, I don't like the AMD logo not being in the center. Besides that, going good!
 
thx guys :) i wish i could have had it in the middle also :P the only reason the amd logo is not in the center was that i wanted the logo large and the case has vent holes right above the cpu :/

EDIT: nvm the dates on the pics. my camera is messed up for some reason. everytime i turn it off and turn it back on it is a new date O_O lol

Love that case, (the tsunami I think?) I also love the AMD logo. Blue makes it look nice, but you really need GREEN! Components are nice too. GREEN!
 
I agree with the other remarks would have looked nice centralised (I realise this wasn't really possible with the large logo). Now about the green comment. I do agree green does also look good, but I think you would have scored another way with green as would then match the amd logo colour =)

All in all well done, shame about your dremel. You know they only made the top of that case so thick coz they knew you would buy it and try to cut into it so they thought they'd make yours extra thick just to piss you off =P
 
hahahahah...yes.. them bastids!!!
