System Specs

Started some work on this. Sleeved a couple fans for it.







Where will these go? In the top. I started with this:



I took out the fans and put these in. Carefully. It was difficult, since the mesh wanted to bend a lot, and there is a gap under the fans...





I've also started to receive some of the parts for this build. Here is the Lamptron FC-2 comtroller:



Of course, my luck means this doesn't fit right in smoothly. I'm going to have to cut away a small section of the 5.25" bay sides to make way for the controller (remove the box in red).



I also have a Lamptron vadal switch that will replace the front power button. I got a Blue Ring style in black to match the theme, and I got the sleeved power cable for it, too.



It will go here, but I have to expand the whole a little. I'm glad I didn't get the 22mm one...



I also got a Phobya quad rad stand for my BIX rad.



It will go in the bottom section, as these cases have ample room for it. That's why I bought this case.



Next thing I need to do is find some 92mm fans to replace the stock ones in the back of the motherboard tray.



I would love some blue Yate Loons to match the ones I'm going to use in the rest of the case, but from what I can see, Yate Loon doesn't make a 92mm like these blue ones. Is there another close match out there? The other alternative is to get a murderMods backplate clean, but who knows when they are going to be back in business...
