Performed Mods:
This was my first experiment to build an decent case-mod with an extreme unusual and efficiently Air-Cooling. I know, inside it looks bad (xD) but the effect was realy good...confident yourself at the pic´s
As the first I would like to say that this mod was build for facts or maximum air cooling effekt for Overclocking, less for good looking ;). For extremly efficience of the Air-cooling-method i build a Frame in the front of the Case for 2 "wind tunnels" and one 80mm Fan 4 the System-HDD and remaining Hardware like Mainboard, RAM etc. One of the wind tunnels was for GPU and a Scythe Ultra Kaze 3000 (46db loud but a flow of 227qm/h @3000u/min.) cares for enough Airstream. A secound Scythe Ultra Kaze 3000 at the side of the GPU cares for little bit airstream too. The secound wind tunnel was for the CPU and two(!!!) Scythe Ultra Kaze 3000 cares for more than enough airstream, so the CPU was extremly cool. At the Top of the Case i made a trible with blue backround lightning and a silver-black-paintwork which was unsuccessful i think in the aftermath :(

Genuine modding, which I like, but do tidy it up! 30 mins with some cable ties is all ;)

Also, temps?

dude...

nice overclock man. I wonder how it looks now, have you cleaned up those wires a bit? Just a few minutes and a bunch of zip ties. Good idea with the wind tunnels, just not to my flavor. overall, good mod. Keep working on something man, it has it's rewards. 5/10
