That's all for now, folks! This mod was a good excuse to do some more cable management and I think that's the best it's ever going to be in this case (it sucks!).
 
I like. Looks better. I'll be doing the same thing with a case mod i'm working on. Going to try something different from black...
 
Looks good thanks...another question did you use any clear coat or sealer.A buddy of mine did this and it turned out ...not so great. Ive been looking to do this for a while and yours looks preety good so I figure ask some one who was sucsesful. :cool:

No I didn't but I should have probably used some sort of lacquer so that it wouldn't have scratched so easily, but I guess that I didn't leave it dry long enough so that's why it was scratching too. I did 3 coats, and within ~3 hours I was putting it back together again. Although, as long as you're careful, it shouldn't matter.
 
So does it still get scratched up now or is it cool?
 
I've got the White version of that case. Its a good case. Cut out your rear fan guard, you'll move alot more air.

Is that an FX I see?

EDIT** I see its not an FX. What cooler are you using?

What do you mean cooler? If you mean CPU cooler, it's the stock AMD one :s
 
rofl good call on not scratching it.. I guess ill just give her a try and hope for the best.;)
 
I was wondering did you do any sanding at all before painting or between coats of paint
 
Do you have any pics of it with the side on, or does it not have a window?
 
Great getting mine end of month thinking of doing it in Black also I have
this setup so far
DFI LANPARTY UT nF4 Ultra-D
ADA3800DAASBV
CDBHE 0534RPAW
132284AI50572
still decideing on memory and vid card for it

But I also thought of doing it in Yellow and putting UV led lights around mobo tray and across the inside of top so board would really light up
not to highjack your thread or anything

but very nice job

NO NO! Whatever you do don't buy this case! Save yourself the trouble! It's a horrible case, get a better one :) Like the 690 or something which is much better.
