From first build to Current- What I did plus pics.

After the original build I decided the side case was boring and went ahead and customized it a bit:)

I custom cut the panel into a flame design and put red plexiglass behind it along with some silicone to seal it.


The silicone can be seen better with this close up. Went with silicone for an almost invisible airtight seal.

Later on, there was a sale on this water cooling unit at my local Microcenter so I decided it was worth the $120 upgrade.

One thing I LOVE about this case is the pre-drilled holes :)

Another shot of the unit, also added a second 9800 GTX in SLI!

Picked up some LED's to add to the intensity of the side panel.


Threw in two extra 120mm red LED fans.

As you can see, both fans are on opposite sides of this removable HDD unit.

Got a HDD cooler for my raptor, it gets hot! Plus I recently added a 60gb SSD to run my OS and games.
