Nice job! :up:
Very nice
Does replacing the fan that draws heat away from the video cards do anything? The fan doesn't move much air but it seems like the design of the fan holder limits the fan itself.
Who said you cannot hide cables in this case and stil close the back side panel?
Here's my project almost done:
Lets manage some cables?

* I only used a light spray of paint on the back so it would be easier to attach the cables and close the side panel of course.
How about now?

* Work done! Took me a couple of hours to route this for a perfect fit!
Glue gun FTW! :ROTF:
Case Closed!

Awesome machines! How much is price range of rocketfish in europe?
Unless you have Best Buy stores in Europe you are out of luck they are very hard to find even here i drove over an hour to find one after spending lots of time calling around.Quote:

Wow, finally found one, their was suddenly a price tag today where the Rocketfish used to be so I decided to ask for them to see if another store had one since I hadn't seen one in over 3 weeks and it ended up being a tag for an Antec but one of the stock guys overheard me and knew where one was, 50 bucks and I finally have a place for my pa 120.3.
I have one of these taking up space in my closet. Used it for a few months and it was just too big for my small desk space in my apartment. If anybody in the Dallas/Fort Worth area in Texas is looking for one, let me know.
I saw an awesome mod using 2 of these cases at QuakeCon in August. The guy had 2 of them bolted together vertically. the bottom held his watercooling and the top case had his system. Talk about extra space overkill!
Jor3lBR -- Whais this "light spray of pin" and where can I find some... :)
You guys inspired me with your clean builds, so after months of neglect in the garage, I finally transfered my hardware in to this beast.
Test fitting the board and marking for wiring holes:

Nice start thus far ric.
Had been using my rocketfish for awhile, went to a v350 though so mine is out in the garage. May bring it out soon again for a phenom II setup. I really like the idea of separating the base (PSU/ HDDs), you did a nice job of it as well.
Thanks, It'll be awhile till its completed, like to do an i7 build, but I also want a new 52" plasma. Sooooo..... computer or plasma, plasma or computer.....?:shrug:Quote:

Ric2L, your cuts are insanely clean. If that was done with a dremel, then you just might be a robot, lol. I really need some cable extensions for my 1200w toughpower, the cables are much shorter than the 750w... makes no sense.
