To view this case mod, go here.
Specs:
i7 4770K at 3.7-3.9ghz at idle/load, speedstep disabled and XMP enabled.
Asus Sabertooth Z87
8gb Corsair XMP 1600mhz 2x4gb CMZ8GX3M2A1600C8
2xGigabyte HD5850 in Crossfire - standard clocks
1x Samsung 840 Pro 256Gb SSD for Everything
Silverstone FT02 Case
Corsair HX750 PSU
Cooling:
3x 180mm Silverstone Case fans (stock positive pressure)
1x Noctua PWM NF-F12 for CPU cooler
1x Noctua PWM NF-S12A for Top Exhaust Fan
1x Noctua NF-A4x10 for motherboard cooling
LG Blue Ray Drive
Sound-card/Sound Setup:
Roland Quad-capture, Dbx PA+ Loudspeaker Management System, Alesis M1 Mk2 Monitors, Custom XLR/TRS Cables all around.
Mods:
Noctua NF-A4x10 installed for Asus Armor - exhausting out the top instead of there stupid "intake" recommendation noisy POS - new fan runs at full power and can't be heard.
Deleted central assist fan.
Full Software controlled fan speed for 7x fans (6 channels) via SpeedFan.exe - GPU, CPU and SSD all control and maintain fan speed - completely automated like a HP server cooling system or such.
CPU cooler chosen for constant physical characteristic that all the heat-pipes go horizontal or up - nothing against physics, the cooler is set back design that was a clear winner.
Case also chosen to aid in HD5850 cooling, by just rotating them so they hang has dropped temps by 10°C as the heat-pipe now "rises" from source to heat-sink at the top, gaming at 30% fan speed with crossfire with 60°C no matter what (30°C ambient temps)
Sleeving of most cables where possible to hide stock colored fan wiring.
All Cables hidden as much as possible

i was so glad i purchased this case, its cool to think even new today it is already 5 year old tech from silverstone yet so visionary
