I CANNOT wait for this thing to be done! Hurry up and get ore money already!

About the HDD bracket, don't you think it would be better if it's aluminum rather than plastic? Maybe some aluminum angle bar?

The plastic will be fine, I'm going to have some rubber mounts between the HD 's and plastic.
It will be cool

But I think the HD's will be fine because the 120mm fan (in the front of the case) will be blowing air through them.
Well in lieu of the fact that you have that huge fan blowing in front of the hard drives, and blowing through them, I would imagine that they will be fine

I don't know how to put this, but, I'm kind of a big deal.

UPDATE!!!!!!!!
01-31-08

Ok, so it's been a while!
Heres a bunch of pics:


Rads mounted with fans on both sides.


Another view


Top view of the rad. I got two sizes of screws that match, score!


Another look at the top, sorry for bad pics, i took them real quick...


And another one...


Heres a pic of the inside of the case with the rad at the top.


Ok, the tubing is going to come really close to the mobo on that back barb... but I've got a plan for that! It's called stubby's :) They help with really tight turns.


Ok, what do you guys think of this:

I put some black cloth duck tape on the outside of the side panel, I'm thinking I'll do this to the whole outside of the case instead of re-painting it black (if you look above at on of the case pics you can see how scratched up the case is).

What do you guys think of this?
It's kinda Ghetto I know, but I think it would look really cool for lan party's and stuff :)

My updates to come when I order some more stuffs
For now,
~Parker

Excellent job on the radgrill, looks really clean! Great job! The side panel looks fine, I think you should keep it the way it is.

Do you mean keep it with the duck tape or take off the duck tape?
