Pics don't do those any justice. They look really bright, but in person they look great. Could have done with being spraypainted properly, but i kept getting caught out by the rain :p

Dust shows up so easily -.-

Nice bundle of horrible yellow cables from the fan controller -.- Painted the optical drive, had to use black marker pen to hide the back of the actual internals of it, didn't want to get paint in the connectors! Looks better in person :) Cant' see the imperfections in the case without flash :p

Got a cable sleeving kit coming, so im doing any cables you can see, so fan cables from the H100 at the top yadayada :)

The H100 pump has decided to grind, so thats being replaced by amazon :)

Not much, but it all helps :)

I like it you got the modding bug now. I think some of that 3M DI-NOC Carbon would look sick on the drive bays http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/REAL-3M-W...arParts_SM&hash=item1c17a193a4#ht_8895wt_1270

I'll give you that ,it does look really good actually :p

Thing is, i think it'd need it all to be done, not just small parts of it if you catch my drift. The PSU in the first piccy is an idea, as it can just be seen through the window.

Another option is to paint my Sickleflow fan blades some colour, but im not sure how the LED's will shine through etc. Got one thats not being used as it's faulty, so i may experiment on that :) Ideas on colours for the blades?

Decided to sleeve my fan cables, as they stuck out like a sore thumb. Used too much Heatshrink on the first one, but it was my first time, so im pleased overall.

Ps, if anybody wants any cables sleeving so they fit in better, i'll do it for you for free since im that bored. All you pay for is the materials and postage both ways :)

Cause the first one generated a grinding noise, it's all over google if you look for it

can we agree that coolit is better then? :)
(they are the same anyway)

Nope, the new one is running soo much quieter than the other one

Good stuff :)

Debating whether or not to get a backplate for the GPU. Only problem is that the EVGA 670 FTW Edition PCB is the same one for the 680, so i'd have to get a 680 backplate. Basically, it'd say 680 rather than 670 on it :p
