ok guys I am posting this in the right thread - we are kinda getting away from that...



I will post pics as I go along but what I am doing right now is I cut out the bottom from fan guard and widening it to accomadate 2 80MM side by side - like the lian Li cases... while still keeping my upper front 80MM for my HD's.

tool of choice:
Black and Decker RTX 30,000 RPM

You're gonna get a LOT of air movement out of that!

How about a monitor mod? I put a fan on mine to cool it down.

The bays are already hidden on that case aren't they? How about casters?
Or devil horns!:D
Have you seen the fans with built in lights? That would look tight on a black case.
