Looks good. You should mod the ICE cooler with a 120mm fan. Also need to do something about this "eVGA FX 5900SE @ 420/720" heh. Nice job looks very good.

What do I need to do about it?

I don't need a 120mm fan back there. I never see the back of the system anyway and the blowhole provide plenty of cooling :)

Thanks on the PEZ :D

I got the mesh from Target. Just a cheap $7 Silver mesh garbage can. I cut it up and spary painted it black.

That's nice for a $7 trash can! :p I wish I had the money right now to build a shuttle. :(

Yeah it worked out real well. I was pleased at how good it looks. The mesh is great cause it helps with cooling and looks different than your average case window. :)

That looks amazing, nice work! Any thoughts/ideas/comments for those that wish to follow your idea?

EDIT: ozzie, you got recent pics of your setup? Your setup is almost always drool-worthy.

The two links I provied in my first post give a good background into what I did. I think it looks cool and ads a little fun to the XPC's. Originally I had purchased my XPC because I sick of big towers and UV lights and cold cathodes etc. I had convinced myself I no longer going to mod anything. But when I got it I had the itch to mod :D

I orginally had an SB51GB and modded that with a Window and a Blow Hole and when I got the SN85G4 I originally did the blow hole and later added the mesh :)

Actually it's call "C-Strip" and I bought it from PCmods.com (which is now FrozenPC.com).

I know it says it's for Fans but I used it on the window too. Fits like a glove!
