well, its time for my second mod, i am starting out with a Coolermaster mystique RC 632 black case, the case is beautiful but it has some problems: the HDD locking devices are a nice dark purple :o the whole inside is a ugly gray, there is no holes in the motherboard tray to wire cables, and the expansion card slot holding device is trash, the case weighs 30 pounds empty, and theres not much cooler inside. i am going to resolve all of these problems in this mod and more.

cut out the front fan cover allowing better airflow (don't worry, the front bezel covers this up)

most of the parts.
got all of the parts, built it in about 4 hours, booted in first try, works like a dream, 100FPS in DoD, i am very happy.
pictures of my set up so far will be up soon.
