Performed Mods:
Not really many mods per-say as I don't want to go cutting up such a beauty of a case. Although. I added some additional cooling to the system with a Scyth Kama Bay which gave me a 120mm fan in the 3 empty 5.25" bays. Put an OCZ Memory Airflow cooler on the rams with a Zalman Fan mate to keep it quiet, it was to loud for me outa the box. Did some cable management as well. Not that it is hard with a P182 though.
Accessories include: Logitech G5/G15 gen2/Z-10 Speakers/G25 racing wheel/ Razer Mantis Speed mouse pad / Sennheiser PC-161 Headset. Cooling: 3x 120mm LED Fans, 3x 120mm Antec Tri-Cool fans, OCZ Memory Cooler, and Arctic Cooling Freezer 64 Pro on the cpu. For anyone who may be considering a P182, I say get it as it is an amazing case to get and work with. I've done 2 builds in them (one my friends in a standard P182 and mine in the P182SE.) The Black painted interior is one of the advantages of the P182SE that the normal P182 doesn't get also the mirrored stainless steel has an amazing look. P182 in black is also really nice as its more of a dark gunmetal grey. Added pics. 2nd pic is the side panel sitting on my chair and taking a pic of the insides through reflection.

8/10. You can take more pics. Consider taking a screenie of booting while side panel is opened on an overviewed picture of the case and shutting down with side panel opened and take a screenie.

The different heatsinks on the 3870's look a tad akward in there, and the motherboard pcb color is nasty.

I honestly don't know why Asus continues making puke colored pcbs...

I do like the first picture, case looks almost invisible.

I'm working on a pretty epic case mod at the moment. Suffice to say, without mods, I have 3 Kama Bays in the front :P

That is an absolutely massive case.... What is that whole top section even gunna be used for.. :| Also, I should be getting another ICEQ3 cooler 3870 soon, I'm doing a build for someone, and for nocking a couple bucks off the price they're gunna let me have the 3870 ICEQ3 in the order and they'll take my reference one.

Still not certain as to what else I want to do to it.

I know for sure that 24 port switch will do in the top corner, but aside from that, haven't come up with any extreme ideas.

In regards to the second Iceq card, sound awesome, should look pretty sharp once they match.
