    Default Thermaltake Armor

    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:


    Same thing but without window:


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


    Top of the HDD rack provided some uses as well:


    Back of mobo:


    Who the heck put their fingers all over my windmill.. :


    Light and window off:


    A few cables and the inside few of the drive bays:


    window on, top view of hdd cables and such. Im leaving the hdd's unplugged until I have a gfx card:


    Kind of a side view:


    Front all turned on:


    Placement on the UV CCFL's:

    #1: Along top rail
    #2: Along inside rail below HDD rack
    #3: Left side of case
    #4: Along bottom of case
    #5: Right out in plain sight
    #6: Right along top of mobo

    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.
    People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

    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

    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
