    Mountain Mods (Towers)

    This is for those that were interested in pictures of the upcoming towers we will be releasing soon. Using the same high grade 2mm thick ALU.

    Here's some actual shots of the Pinnacle 24
    24" Tall, 24" Deep, and 9 inches wide. Essentially half of an Extended Ascension. Options for various radiators on front and top. "Hyper Modular" for panel rotation. Also easily set up for reverse ATX. Just take the security flange put it on the opposite side of the motherboard tray - rotate it 180 degrees on the backwall and swap panels (lef/right).

    The top notch cube-meisters now making top-notch towers . . . sweet! Folks you know this tower will be designed around water-cooling instead of having to figure out how to fit water-cooling inside . . .thanks for not resting on your laurels Ben.

    Wow.. very nice.. I was always intrigued by reverse ATX but never liked any Lian Li for one reason or another. Space for my 480GTX up top?? NICE!

    Beautiful Ben. My desire for Lian Lis instantly fizzled.

    Holy crap a case BUILT to fit a 480 + a 360 while still having 3 bays, GENIUS! I feel really gutted I just bought my Lian Li :P (Pics coming once I get the res and CPU block )

    This should nicely fit two loops which would give a comfortable 480 for dual/tri GPUs and still leave a 360 for CPU/NB... /me sees this as being a big step in water-cooling

    Not bad at all. I would still prefer a uniform inlet over individually lasered holes though. But then again, that's just me.

    I definitely like this though.

    That's looking absolutely top-notch, especially for WC.

    Thanks all for the kind comments. With the advent of the Pedestal it became a no brainer to go ahead and do some towers.

    First a pic of the inside (it's pretty bare in there.) Needs some WC gear to make it feel complete for sure. You can see the PSU is shifted towards the MB to allow for space of the Quad rad at top, of course you can go triple, double, or whatever.. With Quad you'll lose function of long device in top 5.25 - unless you rotate front panel, but then you'd loose triple rad capability on the front. MB tray is approx 1 inch from wall to allow for cable stuffing..

    You know what would be great Ben? Pre-fabbed placement holders for pumps or at least some pre-drilled holes for the pump brackets. Also, a hole in the MB tray right behind the CPU, NB and SB socket for easy change out of blocks. Just a suggestion.
