There is my Project. I like the case. Nice and roomy. I wish the door had better air flow.

If that edging wasn't so hard to work with, it would look a lot better. But, I like it for my first mod. I'm waiting on my leds in the mail, then I'll get some color in there! Not to mention my ram has been out for rma for almost two weeks now... Darn corsair...
I may have to tear mine down a redo it it. Those are looking great.
i just got one today. anyone that isn't able to get it want it for $100 + shipping? i'll take pics and make a sale thread soon. if no one wants it, then i'll just keep it and atempt to mod it to fit two whole computers into this one case, meaning dual PSU, mobo, HD, optical drives, etc :up:
i have to see that :OQuote:

For the hole cuts, I did a rough fit of the motherboard and marked the areas I wanted to cut. After everything was done. I painted the whole case in flat black textured outdoor paint do give it that finished but subdued look.
I'm going to go see if my local Best Buy has any in stock sometime this week. I'll let you know how it goes.
Anybody in Texas in the DFW area looking for one of these? Let me know. I used mine for about 2 months and then switched because it was too big for my desk.
You can get the 24pin cable back behind the motherboard tray... I've done it. Also, run that green sleeved cable straight up the motherboard instead of snaking it around the fan. Hole next to your PSU to feed the wires behind the motherboard tray.Quote:

I tried that....didn't work....ran out of room......of course it's my fault......I added foam sound deading before I did a test fit (insert Homer Simpson "Doh" here). And taking foam off of a panel is a pain in arse.Quote:

Word is we are getting our 3rd 20% increase on natural gas in the past 4 years. Still... NICE to be a resident of an Owner State! Might be enough left for at least a good start on a new build. Haven't had one in 6 years.

Early PFD payments will go out Sept. 12
(08/21/08 01:47:46)
Most Alaskans will receive their Permanent Fund dividends on Sept. 12, the state said Wednesday.
That's about three weeks earlier than was initially announced.
This year's payment of about $2,100 -- the exact amount hasn't been announced yet -- will be supplemented by a $1,200 "resource rebate" for a total payment of about $3,300 per Alaskan.
The annual dividend payment comes from investment profits of the $36 billion Alaska Permanent Fund, a state oil-wealth savings account.
The Legislature approved the extra $1,200 payment this month to help Alaskans cope with high energy costs.
The Sept. 12 payments will go to all 500,000 or so Alaskans who asked for their dividend to be deposited directly into their account, said Bill McAllister, spokesman for Gov. Sarah Palin. The previous plan was to pay some of them on Oct. 2 and the rest on Oct. 16.
Checks will be mailed to those who asked for their payment that way during the week of Sept. 30, McAllister said.
He added that applicants who asked for a direct-deposited payment but who have changed accounts or banks have until the end of business on Aug. 29 to submit a form to the state Permanent Fund Dividend Division requesting a change.
I've got some good updates coming this winter. Maybe not the gpu loop yet, but a bitspower res, new HDD cage and grills. Will post pics soon.
Got a new project using this case if you want some ideas check it out:

Modified my Antec 900 hard drive cage in for extra cooling.

Lots of room for future watercooling or goodies.

I thought I'd paint my Rocketfish. I'm using Flat Black and it's really coming out well. I will have assembled pics soon.
I'm waiting on some stuff for my TJ07 rig and I got bored. I found a deal on a really nice Rocketfish case and thought I'd fix it up. I really don't know what I'm going to do with this yet, but I figured, "What the hell." I'll fix it up.
Here are some pics of it in the painting process. ;)
