    to my log.

    So I've had a Lian Li TYR X-2000 for about 2 years now.
    I was running a V1 zalman reserator with an upgraded pump(from day 1) and a 120 and 240 external rad.
    Hardware is mostly 2 years old, hasn't been any games worth upgrading for lately.
    I try to skip a gpu gen, got 4870s now, so the 6870s are looking good

    I said I'd never dremel it, then one day during a forum discussion a few months ago about case grommet holes, i decided F*%$ it!

    Not long after i saw the new HWL SR1 560, then found Aquacomputer.
    A few couriers, $$s and cut off wheels later, here we are.

    Ive just recieved my (maybe) last delivery and time to install.
    I recently decided to change from 240/120 rads for exhaust to 280/140 to match the 560 intake.
    So i have a minor issue with the hole on the top panel now being too big.
    I made it big enough to drop the rad and fans straight in, with a radgrill on top. but the hole is now wider than 140mm fan holes.

    Trying to get my hands on a 280 radgrill to sort it, but i may just fab something.
    Still need to decide on best option and drill mounts and trim hole a bit.

    Anyway, finally found the mini usb adaptor for sony camera , **&$#sony*$&%non*&$standard&*%(plugs*&#%@!!!!! *

    So heres some pics of where I'm up to,
    still in progress so ideas are welcome.

    It may look like a pretty plain build atm,
    but the last 2 pics give a clue as to what it may look like when finished...
