    No offense, but you need to do some wire management in there, and put some u-channel on the rad cutout to keep the light from coming through.

    Pfft...w/e lol. Looking good is beside the point if little parts detract from the whole beauty, and that 8pin CPU cable looks really bad.

    I really like your idea with the channel around the cutout, wish it was easy to get it but it isn't so I will just leave it.

    You get it, some don't... doesn't matter this is a finished project and I plan to not take the doors off for a few months, got some big events coming up to take it to and I don't want to start something I cant finish before them.

    Thanks for the replys

    It looks like an alien's intestines or something, and the green just strengthens that. I want to see this picture in the dark (same angle)

    Looks great, you really like green hehe. I like what you did with the sleeving to make it stand out a bit. Did this replace your 700D?

    Thanks

    ya the 700D didn't work out, I had it powder coated. the powder coating shop failed it horribly and it wasn't fixable, they melted the front and the color of each panel was incorrect. oh well I go to a lot of LANs and this case is more suitable for doing that anyways.
