    Here are the first shots of the case.
    It's a very fast build so everything is messy ! It's just to see where hardware and cables will take place...

    Lian Li does that brushed "Satin Finish" better than anyone.
    Its difficult to keep perfect (but worth it).

    I have same case now for almost 1 year. Very nice case!

    Excited to see what you do with case. I have never had a chance to finish mine (shorten/lengthen all wires and sleeve everything). We had baby and not enough time!

    Only couple of small issues for me. The front fan filters are terrible and fall off easily so I purchased Lian Li ones that screw on and much more secure!

    Also, removed the stock HDD rack for the top and got one from an X2000 that is hot swapable. I removed the back plate for hot swap but is nice to have all four of my drives in the top. I used an old Velociraptor "shell" for my SSD too!

    Got an extra side panel w/o a window and made my own window as well. And used an old Lian Li panel to make a plate to cover the hole on the motherboard tray.
