My reply to poll was yes remove the carbon.

Its made the case look cheap because its no been done properly and the colours dont work........

Thanks for honest opinion dude:)
Yeah so far there is 9 votes for yes and 0 for no:lol:
But not sure what I will do yet...
 
"PingPangBV enters thread, sees that there's a poll, votes NO as PingPangBV loves the carbon, results shows 9 votes YES and 1 voted NO, PingPangBV hides in a corner and cries"
 
raVen, in the end its your build and you should do what *you* think looks best imo :p

I like the carbon going in different ways tbh, it makes it look way more dynamic instead of just a 'block of computer case'. Personally not a fan of the two different colours
 
I really like the white carbon, but the black kind of spoils it. I think you should cover the entire build with white carbon.
 
What a monster case. Not a fan of the black carbon though, spoils it for me, but I think its down to personal preference.
Good work all the same.

I do like carbon as well, but I'm getting a bit bored of it.

I know that I will do what I want, but I want other people opinions as well as they matter to me:)

I was thinking about all white carbon as well, but we will see, maybe first I'll try just with carbon inside, and outside I will leave as it was stock.

Yeah this case is MONSTTTTTER :D
 
I'd say go with full White carbon. Black carbon has been used way to much imo.

Other than that I'm looking forward to seeing the case filled with hardware ;-)
 
I also think that the 2 different carbon colours don't work great together. All white carbon would be fine, IMO :) I voted YES, though.

It will look good with all hardware:) Should have some stuff inside tomorrow, as I expecting my specialtech order to arrive by tomorrow( after 1 week of waiting...well over week)
Too much carbon in my opinion.
Yeah probably you right dude:D

I will deffo keep carbon inside, but not sure if I want it anywhere else.
Will do some work with that today:) I'll try at least.

Also today I ordered proper pin remover from mdpcx, so when that arrive I can do some sleeving:D
 
My order from Specialtech supposed to be delivered today by FedEX but.....
they left it in my neighbors, but I don't know where.
Specialtech did spoke to them and FedEX will contact me as soon as they contact person that they left my stuff.
Next time I'll do order from Specialtech I will use royalmail specialdelivery, never again FedEX.

Ok thanks God I got that delivered today:)
But will post pictures tomorrow:D
BTW carbon gone:) But only from outside, the inside one will stay there:)
Pics tomorrow as well:D:D

Ok sorry for delay with pics but I'm busy at work:)
But I manage to do some stuff with project as well.
Here are pics:D
Order from Specialtech:)




EK angled fittings


Noiseblockers eLoop B12-3 1900 RPM










Some Phobya stuff( heatshrink and cables)



Silverstone 120mm Fan Grills/Dust Filters



2x Alphacool NexXxos 360 UT60







And 3 fans fitted with dust filters into 3x120 Flex-bay.



And there it its next to my tiny switch 810:D





Yeah carbon gone and it will not be back! I left it only inside the case.

I will try to do some job done with sleeeeeeeeving now:D
 
you know, you and Tom have made me open up a line of communication to CaseLabs
for a new case? (you rascals)

i saw a YT vid on a massive M8 with 34/5 fans and the wiring is sooo wrong! LOL
he'd p/p all rads and now he's running a devoted PSU just for fans and cooling.

is it photo trickerie on the UT60(s) one looks different from the other?

HAHHA:D:cool:
You should get Caselabs case, they are EPIC!
Post link to this video:D
What is the difference between them? I think that this is a picture dude:)
 
Watercooling gear looks awesome, looking forward to seeing the loop built :)

Thanks dude:)
I'm in the middle of finishing my very first ever sleeved by me cables:D:D:D
Power and reset button, I will post pics as soon as I finished them( about 15/20 minutes) :D
I already have couple of different ideas how to do my loop but I will change it 10 times while I'm building it:D But I will try to make it as tidy as possible. I think that if there will be waterblock for my motherboard, I could make bit more tidy loop.
I cannot wait to see your STH10 fully watercooled:D

Nice one, i be waiting for the pics :D

I have feeling, i too will be changing loop layout a few times :lol:
 
Good progress so far!

Keep the pics comming, because this is sexy as hell!

By the way good fan choice, got some e-loops myself, you wont regret !

Cheers buddy.
 
WOW! That case is huge!
Looks good so far mate!
Thanks:D;)
Yeah its Monster compare to normal cases:D

I'll try my best with pictures dude:)
Yes this fans are really really gooooood:) I'm glad that I went for them instead of Bitfenix Spectre Pro's. They are really quiet even on full speed, but anyway I will keep them probably on 60%, to make them near silent. I also LOVE the design of them, and the fact that I cannot hear motor makes my ears happpy:D
And for radiator fans I'll be using GT A15, as they are amazing as well, they just doesn't look as good as those, but for radiator fans they my nO.1!

Ok thas my sleeving job:) If they are not too good I have to say straight away that this is my first attempt with sleeving:D
I also wanted to cover all of the connectors behind the switch, so I used bit longer heatshrink, but it looks good, and I wouldn't be able to really see that once is installed.












Next I will install all of my new fans, than I will do some photos of that and I'll crack on with sleeving GT A15's:D


Please let me know what do you think about my sleeving.
Thanks:D
