    Cool CM690 2* 120.2's fully internal

    Well im bored at work so I figured now would be a good time to start a thread on the CM 690 im building! Right now I am modding the case to fit two 120.2 rads fully internal no fans hanging out grills or anything!!! this has presented a couple of challenges as you will know if you have a 690 lol

    The first rad is in the front of the case and I had to do quite a bit of hacking to make that work and the second will be in the top of the case

    as far as hardware plans are I am planning for a RIIE and core I7 of course and GTX video not sure which ones yet or other hardware but want a computer for all kinds of games and ready for the release of W7 and SC2 if its ever released

    Will ad pics when I get home just to prove it

    You should move this over to the project logs.

    You could ask a mod to either move it or delete it and start a new one in the worklogs section

    Nice, i did the same but didnt cut out as much for my front rad.
    Good thing is i could always cut out more if needed.

    Also i cut out the front with everything still inside my case
    Mobo, watercooling gear and all.

    Cant wait to see how yours turns out.
