Right first up is the case.

I have got it and cut out the top part ready for cutting. I was going to cut this myself but I bought the Rad and Rad grill from Kustom so I decided to get them to cut it at the same time

drilled out the pop-rivets that hold the case top onto the case. Easy job

Unwrapping!

Looking good. Very nice case. Very light. Just the "professional" look I want

My tools

[Raging]

a hammer!! u better leave that nice case alone u evil person
cant wait to see the results mate,and agreed that is a more proffesional looking case

ive been thinking of getting rid of my stacker in favour of something more smaller and nicer looking too..

cheers.

[Kempez]

Its not smaller I'll tell you that for nothing

[Carbine]

Ooo a Lian Li.. good choice!

Keep us posted!

[Kempez]

Just some thoughts

I currently have Blue UV Dye and UV Cold Cathodes. I am thinking of trying this Orange UV dye that I have but I think its a bit pink! Maybe Red is a better colour?

The LANPARTY motherboard is mainly yellow and orange so if I can get an orange UV dye that is ACTUALLY orange then I like orange as a main colour for the water with maybe blue highlights elsewhere. What dya think?

Deffo going to get some black and silver action going on inside the case. Unsure if I want to paint the indide though so maybe some black and silver highlights (like polished perforated aluminium). There's definately going to be a window in the case and I may try my hand at some etching into it. I like drawing so I'll come up with some ideas on paper and show you guys

I'm also trying to think how I can incorpoarte the spare CM Crossflow I have fan into the case as that is awesome for cooling the entire motherboard

Just thought I'd show you just how sexy the Crystalfontz LCD really is

Quick update: I have sent off the top for cutting and fitting of the AC Evo 360 rad + grill. Got a day off thursday so hoping it'll be back for then

Also I have sold the old case so I need to get this project kick-started
