Isn't the case targeted to people who WC everything anyways?Quote:

Mick64 I would also like the modular idea for audio and USB, because I usually remove them anyway, saves on cable managment, and yer, alot of fan controllers have them.
If you need more rads you can stack 2 480's at the top with some deltas in between, oops, should not have said that.Quote:

Made the changes to the front panel, as mentioned. What are your thoughts on these renders?

To Others,
Manufacturers been copying others for years. EX: look at the Antec 300 and the NZXT Air Flow King, the reviews for the Air Flow King, they said we can see where the inspiration comes from (Antec 300). I don't think he has to worry about copyright infringement.
To Mick64,
I'm not saying your copying. You know I like your design.
What's so different/unsatisfactory about the new front?Quote:

Ya its looking great with the modular panel. You have some people that want it up top, other people on the bottom, other people don't want it at all. This way you please everybody without any major design changes.
I would be putting 2 stacked swiftec triples at the bottom, and a huge (feser) quad up top. That's some serious cooling power to be fitting it all inside a tower case. Great work!
I have a suggestion to improve the look of the front fan. You should shape the edges of the grille material so that it sits flush with the front face of the case, instead of being recessed. Its hard to explain in words, but, do you know what I mean? It would make it look more OEM and less modded, giving it a much sleeker look.
This is an interesting idea, and yes I do know what you mean. :up: I may give this a try, and if it looks promising, I'll see if I can do the side panels to match! What do you think?Quote:

I love the case, but I think meshed front (like the MAC PRO) will look better IMO.
i liked it when the power buttons and front panel connectors were next to the 5.25 bays it looked more clean
i dont really mind the modular design that you added
Wow thats a awesome looking case :clap:
Ya! the grille looks great. its not difficult to manufacture it that way, they just 'punch' the shape into the material, by slamming it in a mold. It didn't turn out very noticable in the render, but in person it will be a different story.
people might want two psu bays so if you make the psu you bay vertrical then you can fit two power supplies with only little increese in height
This was suggested on the Liquid Cooling Thread. These were my thoughts....Quote:

Here's another render with the side cover on, with the flush grill.....

This is really good stuff right here. I wish I could have a case designed by you!
How about a square fan grill? As suggested by Eddie3dfx....:up:
http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/k...e-mkII-26s.jpg
A lot better, it goes with the side grills.
I WANT ONE!
Who likes white? :cool:

Ooh... what about a mix...
Black with white mesh or vice versa? :)
(Or Black with Silver/Chrome and Silver with Black if the white is too much)
Just throwin' it out there, it's an excellent design. Better than anything I could come up with in as much time.
Man, I would buy that case in a heart beat. I've been looking all over for a tower that would support two PA 120.3
I will be watching this thread.
It looks awesome, all it needs in my opinion is some easily removable fan filters and maybe some wheels because it'd be hell to carry that case around when it's got 2 or 3 water loops in it.
