Pretty excited at the moment wondering how the powder coating will come out on this. About 4 weeks in making, (2 weeks getting qutoes from various places, 2+ weeks getting it done... the shop kept pushing project ETA further out). Not quite CNC'd yet as it is my test run to feel the responses. It's hitting powder coating shop tomorrow.
It's really funny how Dima's newest case looks verbatum same with mine. One would think one of us copied the others... LOL. Great job Dimas :toast: I think we will see more of similar casing in future as we finalize what we feels is best :)

the thing with cases is function will all ways determine the pattern and thus all will look the same as the core function is the same, and thus not much you can do to make them look unique, aside from off setting the controller to either side or off setting the condenser port or vent fans.

Perhaps adding a plexi front panel with some LEDs angled to the centre where all 4 beams meet would be a way to make ones stand out more.

Ahahaha... thats what seems like happening now. It will have plexi behind inside to protect lcd on mine. Minor difference really.

Ah well if you wish IM me some time and I will give you some good aesthetic design ideas as I was originally designing a system for water cooling but simply do not have the funds to fully bring out the concept, perhaps if they will be of use to you we could make it work for us both?
