Damn nice Kyle, now rip it all out and give that thing a coat of paint...lol!

Also I recommend putting molding around the other two holes as well...fan vibration could over time allow the sharp edge to cut thro the wires!

lol butterknife, id like to see that
Presenting the........ Butterknife Mod
:laugh:

damn i cant wait until i have my new thermaltake soprano case, dont get me wrong i love my pc, but if its in a case you dont like, it makes the whole thing crap, know what i mean ? :shadedshu

i bought this "full size" case simply for the fact that i couldnt afford a Antec 1200 and wanted a "full size" case for once, what a mistake that was, its a mid size frickin tower thats advertised as full tower, doesnt have a window and just look like a cheap/crappy version of the antec 900, here it is in all its non-glory (thanks for the pic ebuyer :ohwell:)

you see, that looks half decent, however i can imagine it to be quite tacky in the flesh. If i go for a new case, itll be a Lian Li or a CM cosmos/stacker.

Antec 900 doesn't have dust filters for the front fans , does it ?

mine does - its called an 8800GT :laugh:

nice work on the case man - mine is a cable nightmare tbh - my PSU isn't modular, and its really not pretty. You may have inspired me to tidy it up a bit ;)
