The owner of this Creation is a good friend of mine, This was a tough build with some 8 hour days working on it to make sure everything lined up & fit with all the panels, But like I said to him when we started this project, no matter how hard it was to build, in the end it would be worth it. from start to finish, from ordering the part to making everything fit, this was a 5 month project. Now it sits at his house on his glass desk that I hope to god don't break. The greatest thing about this build is hearing him tell me how much him & his family love it. Thanks once again for viewing my creations.

Yeah, im all in favor of constructive criticism ( not that many of the cases on tpu need any ) but to rate poorly with no reasoning is unsociable at best

I give it a 7/10

The interior looks amazing. Great job. However the actual front of the case has mismatching colors. Grey, white, black....For a 10/10 the front panel would need to be cleaned up. You wouldnt know how awesome this PC is by looking at it dead on, you would need to go look inside. So I think its missing the "Oohh Ahhh" Factor from the front angle.

Now a 7/10 is my opinion. Some of you like the "sleeper" look..where it appears like a normal pc from the front...I dont. You spend that much time on a custom build I would want people to know it and know just how awesome it is.

What can I say 10/10...You have the habit of making everything look like it belongs...Aside from the mismatched exterior (no big deal really) the ENTERIOR is amazing. Very involved yet organized...there should be 2 case gallery classes...1 for builders such as yourself and another for regular joes like me...lol....Very, very nice man
