Performed mods

It took me a while cuz when I started there was not one hole in this case.
I cut the design in the side and used Plexiglas.
Custom made the protective grill at the back.
For the fan's I used a 3.5 inch whole saw and bought 2 Blue cooler master fans, same goes for the top of the case.
I made a cut-off switch for all the fans so I can sleep at night.
For the right side I cut it out with a jigsaw and used perforated sheet metal as a back-drop.
Before it was all assembled I had everything powder-coated high gloss black and off I went!

Nice Case

I live the OCZ fan, it's very quite and stylish. Don't you think? i was thinking to get AC64, but end up with this one cause it's bigger & Intel friendly.

Took the words right outta my mouth, i dont even have to keep all my case fans on for it to do a good job, it's a really good buy!
