Nice place to mount it. I really love the red color of that case it's not like other "seedy" red colour that use other case companies.

Keep on working, I'm ejoying it

Doing some damage here! Do not use this type of saw .. hard to get straight line!

Waalah! Phew! .. still ok!

Testing on the case ..

**Wezly** · 06-04-2010, 09:54 PM

Oh hello, idk how I missed this.

Oh wait, I haven't been watching the new threads like I used to; too busy. Thanks for the luck, it doesn't look like you'll need it!

I like your choice of case and am intrigued by your rad setup.

**JoeChuo** · 06-09-2010, 05:59 PM

EK Supreme HF

Beauty ...

EK Radiator Bracket ..

Another EK Radiator to replace the GTS 360 ...

Awesome photography skills and beatiful stuff

I really like the way this is going on. I want to see a build finished from this case since the Capella project it's not being finished yet

I'm thinking of getting Lian Li Mid Tower case for water cooling and it's nice to see worklogs on this type of case. Nor really sure about color scheme in a red case with a DFI LP UT Th3e8...so it's so difficult to choose :P

**ScottALot** · 06-10-2010, 09:52 AM

Wow the picture of the ekwb logo on the radiator is really fantastic!

**aka_GK** · 06-10-2010, 10:41 AM

oops, that picture with 2TB WD looks familiar to me

love your pictures JoeChuo

Mid tower case pretty tight for water cooling. I tried my best to squeeze everything in.

**JoeChuo** · 06-18-2010, 11:27 PM

I think my work-log is boring .. nobody looking in!

WorldCup fever hits everybody. Anyway let's continue ..

A bit slowdown with the progress recently .. still unpacking till now

Today I started doing drilling, cutting, filing etc. Hard labor work! Hope that I had the workshop or garage space ... in Singapore it's almost impossible! Haha!

Let begin with ... prep the case >

2 Drain port hole!

More holes for the wires ..

Cutting the front top bezel for the slim DVDRom ODD ..

Filing!

Prep the ODD bracket ..

Testing!!

Waalah!

I'm using this for cutting .. better than my retired Dremel

Mod the HDD bracket ... for storage HDD

Rivet is fun!

Success!

Lastly .. relocated the BigNG

Looks like it's hard to clean the case ... kinda sticky .. even with vacuum cleaner! Haha! Going for beer first ...

God must be jealous

Need some help of thinking now. After the beer .. can't think straight

Just wondering whether this can fit in >>

or can we squeeze in this one ... the box definitely can!

Maybe both ... will try later

Thank you for looking in!

**guilleguillaume** · 06-19-2010, 08:01 AM

I'm just liking a lot the mods you're doing to the case with the objective of watercooling this case. I'm ver excited about your steps because I'm looking for a Mid Tower to move my components there and watercool them, it will be a very nice inspiration...

I'm very interested in the Slim DVD Mod because if i want to put a 3x120mm Radiador on the front like you i will need it for sure, last time i saw that mod was on this worklog but I'm not really sure about how it works and wich it's the essential mod I need to do in the case( Like the Hole to let the CDs pass trough the case or the fasteners I need to do to hold de Slin DVD).

I'm enjoying a lot your work

**ScottALot** · 06-19-2010, 10:26 AM

Xeon! 3x SLI! Amazing case! What else do you have that I'm jealous of?

**aka_GK** · 06-20-2010, 06:05 AM

excellent pictures, excellent work
