Lol, when I saw your picture, I feel like you live couple blocks from me, I guess the places in MI does look like the same. And you have a nice cat there, here's some pictures of my cat just for fun. :) (Sorry, Iphone pictures not that good).

I love your photo of the trees in fall.
The one thing about OZ is, it can move from one season to another and the native landscape only goes from green to brown and back to green. It lacks the vibrant colours that you have there.
However if you keep on taking photos, like we do in our house, then you will need to buy another hard drive to store them all in.
Keep it up, it's an excellent pastime and after a while your perspective of your surrounding will change, you could say they will come into focus.

Yea, only nice thing about MI's change of seasons. Then we get get cold and snow. :(

Thanks much. :up:

Small update:

The case was dropped off at the powdercoaters and should be done by Friday.

I'm still working on the PSU sleeving and will post some photos of that when done.

The 300 GB Velicoraptor arrived today along with my copy of Windows 7.

That's about it. No photos today, sorry. :(

Thanks for looking in. :)

That BoxGods showing off as always. ;)

I am too. The sleeving is moving along a bit slowly due to school, I'm a little nervous on the powdercoating. I hope the do a good job. :)

I'm not certain what you mean there. Is easiest way to mount a 3x120 rad is in the upper section like how I mounted mine. You just need to cut a hole. I used a Dremel to do my cutting. I then mounted it to the middle fan mounting spot and it supports it fine.

If you could do a sketch of what you are talking about and post it, it might help me to understand better. :)

[QUOTE=BoxGods;4082562]Your pictures are FINE Chris. Cutest kitten EVER!

That your hey G. I don't know, Kanzy got a pretty cute kitten himself there. The cutest kitty award goes to mine though, and before you ask, it was not biased based on the fact this is my build log. :p:

Yep, didn't have too much of a choice in the matter, but it is a nice block. I am very happy with it so far. I still need to put water to it though. ;)

Yea, not cutting any holes, it will hold 1 2x120 without issue. The only concern is thicker rads as you may run into clearance issues with the mother board.

The hole is a none event to cut though.

I didn't take the case apart when I cut it and the black cover goes right back on with no issues. You'll want to take everything out of the case before you cut though.

I'll make certain to take a photo from the top with rad remounted. I was meaning to when I was taking it apart, but I forgot. :(

Just warning you, my cat will still be the cutest. ;)

Looking forward to seeing more cat photos. Mine was trying to help me with sleeving my PSU. :yepp:

Have you ever posted photos like you said you were in the Cosmos thread? I'll work on posting some there when I am done with mine.

Another small update:

PSU is sleeved, still need to test it and see it is dark here now, I am going to wait on photos.

It seems my case got powdercoated today, unfortunately, I won't be able to pick it up till Friday. :(

I'm excited to see how it looks. I'll post some pics this weekend for certain. :)

P.S. I'm allergic to cats. But I still visit your log because I dig where you're taking this. :D

I hooked it up to the PSU tester i have and everything looked ok. I will probably get a multimeter and check for certain before I hook everything up.

I'll pick up the panels tomorrow, but I have a Halloween party to go to tomorrow, so I won't be able to post pics till this weekend. I don't want to post crappy pics if I don't have to. :up:

I will let you guys know if they came out ok tomorrow though. :)

That is about how it ends up. :)

Itty bitty update. :cool:

Well I got the case back and it looks great, especially for what I paid for it.

Expect some real updates this weekend. :D
