I recently got this case for Christmas and due to a death in the family i havnt been able to finish it until this weekend. So I'd figure i'd share some photos i took today on an array of iso settings, mostly 50 or 100. Also before you comment, yes im missing the video card, had to RMA that sucker back to BFG to get a new 7600GTOC. If anyone has any suggestions/comments/concerns please let me know.

Side view w/lights on and window on:

I knew the top of that bay would be useful for hiding ****:

Top of the HDD rack provided some uses as well:

Very cool, looks pretty good and clean.

Have you thought about painting the inside? Thats about all I could think of as for improvement. It's pretty well done. Congrats.

Actually, I have. Not sure what color and what part i should paint. Was thinking maybe black to match the finish or some sort of UV paint

Nice cable management yes some UV paint would make the case stand out.

Good work on the cables. Could you not make the cathode a little more hidden? Just seems a bit "open to me. Perhaps put it on the cross beam of the side panel or put it in a drive bay?

Hehe, yea im thinking of moving cathode #6 into the bay to the right, I was really against putting one out in the open but I only did it just to get the job done

Also by wire meshing im guessing you mean the sleeving on the powersupply? If so, it came like that. Its a Hiper 580w PSU, its presleeved in UV blue
