I totally understand what you're saying m8. However, allow me to retort.

The way I see things is it's an example of what can be done, what can be achieved under ones own expressions and creativity. The MM cases are hardly the pinnacle of style but for functionality it's second to none. It suits my needs perfectly and while I would agree there is a certain degree of willy waving involved (anyone who posts a build log and claims otherwise is a bare faced liar) my main intention is to build a PC for ME; nobody else. IF it were all about power then I would have a couple of GTX295's and a few SSD's. Sadly I don't have the expendible cash for such hardware.

I won't pander to fashion and certainly won't bow to other peoples preferences (I would buy a black tj07 for that!). I like to put my own mark on my own projects through my own hard work and then show them off...is that really so bad?:(
 
Update

Little update, just got a mail from MountainMods:

Hi Richard,

The parts were picked up yesterday from powder.

I’ll work this weekend and get the thing airborne beginning of next week.

Cheers,

Mountain Mods

Result! :dribble:

Agreed mate what one spends on one self is up to one :)
 
I'm with you all the way on the MM cases mate. They are expensive for what you actually get in terms of frills, but they are ready to go for wc'ing and the modding potential of them is superb. I am really looking forward to this one, and it was partly down to your U2-UFO mod's that has inspired me to try mine out. :)
 
I should get commission from MM tbh.....oh wait, I am:D

Something I'm stuck on atm is the fan grills. It's causing me plent of headaches as I don't know whether to go with plain wire grills (white) or get a couple of rad grills.

I don't know, but just hurry up and get that case back so we can see it!

LOL, my thoughts exactly.

Can you not get one of each and wait to see what they look like? Then decided on whats best...

If you wanna give me the money then yeah m8. I still have a budget for this build but for the life of me I can't remember what it is!

Custom made grills it has to be.
