Chiller's Evga Monsta (case in progress)

[croimans]

Hereby i present you my casemod.

First : i do Extreem OC on Dice and LN² and various hardware and like benching.

then i was thinking why not a mega casemod for my hardware ?

Building something beautiful.

I use a Silverstone Raven RV01 case with side window.

hardware :

Core i7 965 ES EXtreme edition

Evga X58 Classified

Corsair Dominator 1866Mhz 3x 1Gb triple channel

2x Evga GTX295

1x Evga GTX285

Intel SRCSAS18E raid controller 8 SAS/SATA

4x OCZ ssd V2 raid0 376mb/s ,acces time 0.3ms

Custom build Cpu cooler with 300w 24v TEC (separated build log)

400w 24v TEC-psu

gigabyte odin pro 1200w modulair psu

And here it is : Chiller's Evga Monsta.

Enjoy the pics :

First i changed the backside with a winwod because the connectors on the O/I shield are at the topside of the case.

changing the Fan from 0.65w to 7.6w fan adjustable for more airflow when benching for fun :

27.7v

Also i putted a 3mm acryl between the feet of the case where are going to be SMD-led's in for nice effect :

I also lower the grid about 5mm for the smd-led's do their job :
