The NEW Hottness! New build, and of course pictures all the way!!

OK, so I picked myself up a nice Lian-Li PC75b case.

This is the first time I have seen this case in person.... and let me say HOLY SHHT there is a lot of room in this thing!

I can put my Meanwell 320-S powersupply, my frankenstien mod and a triplerad setup with room to spare. I am in love with this case!

Here are a few "on the way" shots

Chapter One : In the Beggining
















will upload more soon.

NICE! I was almost expecting toothpaste when the picture was loading! LoL! I can't wait to see the completed system! I want a different case eventually, but for now I'm content. That thing's gonna be sweet, definately good airflow, I'm impressed!

The 900 (my old case) was a great case... just a bit small for everyting I am cramming everyting into it.

I am taking my time with it, I dont think that it will be done until last this week. Plus I still habe to wait on my Video card

Wow, sick man.. That case is sick. Reminds me of the gloria I wanted so bad. Did you DIY the radiator and fans on the top. Looks insane and like it came like that from factory. Also I love the fill port too. Look like you are going to have a lot of fun building that machine. I alread want to sell mine and build another.

It may be used sparingly, but too much just looks tacky. And with that much aluminium... a little polishing will at least double any light output from cathodes or LEDs inside the case, possibly more. Now mix both - UV reactive components and a little paint, with polished glory... gorgeous
