Thanks! It'll be even cooler once we're done with it, in fact, it'll be water-cooled! 😉

Update time! We're working on getting the case cut and painted over the next week. Still finalizing the parts list for the custom loop, but we're getting there! In the mean time here are a couple shots of most of the hardware we plan to use as well as a motherboard test fit. 🙂

Edit:
Here are a couple diagrams of the sides of the case and the cuts we're intending on making. The plan is to have lights shining through, that wiring job is going to be fun when we get to it. :rolleyes:

Want to see a cut up EK-Vulture? Here you go! Got the cuts made to the side panels and the HDD bay cover. Just waiting for acrylic to come in to work on the lighting in the case and plan on having the powdercoat stripped off and start painting sometime this weekend. 🙂

Got a few updates! We've removed the powder coat from the side panels and a 360mm rad we had at the office. We'll be working on painting a few internal pieces and the fans tomorrow. Acrylic comes in tomorrow and we also ordered the parts for our loop. It's getting there and I can almost see the finish line. 😄
