To give u a idea, I have placed the hardware in the case and taken some pictures. In the bottom of the case I will place 1 140mm rad, 1 420mm rad, 2 Pumps and the PSU

In the top of the case I place the 280mm rad. That wont be visible when the case is finished.



I haven't had much time to continue with the side panels of the case. I haven taken them to my work so when I have some free time I could continue to work on it but the last weeks there was a lot of work.

But I have enforced the grill in the front of the case with 2 pieces of 5mm plexi. I glued the parts together and then filled up where it was needed.

That was it till next update.

The sanding work for the front grill is almost over. I only need to complete 6 more pieces and the grill is finished.
The past 2 weeks I have bin sanding the aluminium parts alsmost everyday.







My Gf was not really happy with it I was more interested in sanding all the parts then here. And the dirt that came with it was not helping. :worried:
I did all the pieces with grid 240,400,600,1000,1500,2000 with result as this.



Time to polish it with the drill. Using polish paste and cotton disk on my drill. This progress wasted my hole Sunday. to get maximum bling out of it.:naughty:

[alain-s]

Then I just have to place all the parts on its place.











6 More pieces and the grill is finished. Lucky they arrived by mail today with the radiator stand. That I had made in SU

[alain-s]

Mounted the rads and pumps on the stand to check if everything fits proper.

[alain-s]

Just enough room for the pipes and drains. Also the new midplate was ready for the case.



Fits perfect.





Also received a nice package from Cyberspace with 2 Aqua-Computer Poweradjust 2 USB - Ultra Version in it. Had the change to buy them over from. This way I got 1 controller for each loop.







If I got time this weekend I can tap some wire in the parts and modify the pumps housing.
