Improved airflow or decreased pressure?

I see it as more ways dust can get into my computer

it depends on weather or not you have positive or negative pressure in your case if its negative it will provide a bit better airflow but also introduce more dust in your system if your not using something like mesh bracket covers. if its positive pressure it will decrease the pressure in your case and could potentially improve airflow over certain components it would be more of a trial and error sort of thing at the point, you also would not have to worry about introducing more dust if its positive airflow. if you have neutral pressure in your case it could turn negative by opening more "vents"

I wanna get something later in the year like a Rosewill BLACKHAWK or Thor maybe something from Corsair even.

Something absurdly big that I can fill with drives and hide cables .

I would look at this case. It has like 9 drive bays or something like that

That's an awesome little case. Though I don't like how most of Fractal Design's case's only have 2 5.25 expansion bays.

Hey guys about my Antec case earlier what would you think if I paint it metallic blue and add some white stripping to make like an old musle car? Remove the optical drives and put a single black one dvd-rw ?

Yes, stripes do make it go faster . Put in a black, or a Metallic blue drive if you can get one, then paint the drive metallic blue if it already isn't, then paint the platter white, that would look sweet.

I am building a Star Wars ATAT computer.

Using a Star Wars ATAT Full Size Model Kit from Toys-R-Us
Using a ASUS P8Z77-I Deluxe ITX mother board.
GSKILL 8G 2400 MEMORY Intel 3770K processor
Mini ITX Athena Power supply 400W FLEX
Corsair H60 CPU water block.

I have cut out the 6.7x6.7 square out of Plexiglas 1/4" thick. I have installed Corsair H60 water cooling block
Will send PICS after installation.

I recommend you use Debian or atleast switch ubuntu over to XFCE or LXDE

It will be less bloated.
