    just wondering I see you can buy sata connectors is it possible to make up sata power and data cables? What sort of wire is used and where to buy it? getting closer to being able to paint have done bulk of the prep just doing final detail sanding more updates in a few days.

    That window in the front should be where you put a monitor since it will be a HTPC, or if you want a monitor for watching temps etc, just a suggestion i've seen some guy put a 10.2" monitor in an NZXT Rogue........

    yea good idea but dont think my budget will allow for that at moment maybe further down the track.Hey has anybody used an aquarium "chiller" (basically a refrigerator unit and pump in one desiegned to chill tropical fish tanks on hot days)instead of rads and would titanium and copper mixture corrode?

    I assume the angled piece internally is to prevent cavitation? Or is it for a visual effect?

    I like the case: you have skills

    visual affects and the idea i had was to try and stop to much turbulance and airation of the fluid feel free to change it as necessary the only thing i want kept the same is the dimensions the 4 seperate chambers and the hole for the barb that is on the side rather than on the end so it will be easier to plumb to the second video card
    when I build my sli system next year.
