i see people modding the new one all the time. since i got this case a year ago i have been wanting to rip it apart and do something with hit. so now that i am into liquid cooling. i am turning the case over to liquid cooling. i have no sketch ups or anything like that all my plans for this case are in my head. i tried to make sketches but im terrible at drawing and sketchup just take to long.

The Plan

paint it
make the 360mm rad fit
has to look cool
fit a decent amount of hds
sleeve everything.
good wire management.
have fun

What I Have Done so far.

so far i have ripped the case apart,cut the bottom heres a pic or 2.

that is as far as i have gotten. i took a piece of aluminum from lowes cut it. pop riveted to the bottom of the case. still got alot of work to be done. i took a wire brush to the case and got most of the paint stuff off of it.


remember if you have any suggestions let me know. every time i do something new i will take a picture and make a mini update.

So what's the aluminum angle for?

Also, IMG tags are your friend. ;)

the aluminum piece is so it look a bit decent. if i would have just used what was on there it would have looked terrible.
