Hi guys,

I recently bought a custom phase cooler, no problems there except that the unit has a black lacquer effect on it.

What i'd like to get is a case that would match a Lian-Li (like PC-65B) or other simple case (doesn't have to be lian li) to match the finish and dimensions but where do you get these cases from commercially?

Since there seem to be a few builders here i was hoping you guys could point me in the right direction. I don't mind doing a bit of modding to the case but I don't have the tools for anything too big, and i certainly don't want to mess around with the phase unit apart from simply moving it from A to B.

What i'd like to end up with is something like this, where i could house my phase unit at the bottom and all my watercooling stuff at the top with simple holes where the tubes/evap could come through.

Kinda like what this guy did:

but without the flashy lights.

All suggestions welcome (already ruled out the Vapo /Mach dress-up kits though, those things are retardedly expensive and i'd still need to build a frame for them!)

Thanks in advance :)

Edit: don't make fun of my photoshop skills :D

Ahh that was actually one of the dress-up kits that i mentioned at bottom of post. But they are designed only for the Vapo/mach Chassis underneath and my cooler has a different design underneath.

And maybe its just me but $200 ~£100 for 3 pieces of anodized aluminium seems alot to me :S especially if i have to find the case that they stick onto :(

I'd be willing to purchase some cases of a builder if someone also makes them to match a case :up:

Edit: wow i totally missed the LittleDevil Case thread... **whistles**

well a vapo LS has a pc65 matching case ;) honestly pretty decent performance when you have it modded.

I already have the cooler though, and vapochill don't just sell the cases from what i believe :shrug: ... only the kits that "stick" onto the cases.

My Lian-Li PC-75 works great. It has tons of room. Only draw back is it is about 4 inches longer than the PC-65's so as of right now it just hangs off the back a bit. I plan on having a buddy of mine laser CNC some new sides for the Vapo that will be the same just 4 inches longer to match.
