I everyone, im new here, and id thought id introduce myself by showing off the acrylic case i just finished building. ive worked in this for almost 2 months now, ripping it apart and rebuilding it and making minor changes. I finally found the configuation I like.

I ended up cutting out the mobo tray and back panel of my old case and intergrated them into this one. And the large space in front is for the heater core of my upcoming watercooling setup.

let me know what you think.

Looks real nice. Case looks deep and wide enough.
Just a question :
why didn't you cut a 120mm hole at the back, instead of an 80mm?

I dont know. I guess i never thought of that. Plus this was my first time building something like this, or doing any major mod work, so I was probably focusing more on not screwing up. I might go put one in when i get my watercooloing stuff.

Id have to say around 10 pounds, give or take a few . Its really light compared to other manufatured cases. Really light.
