Howdy guys, my new build is below.. you can ignore the fact that the Asus silent square evo isnt compatible with the striker extreme, that is in hand and being sorted ;p

For now it is all staying seperate while i wait for a delivery tomorrow, but here you go - it was a very expensive case but the build quality is absolutely sublime - will simply link the full size images as smaller ones wouldnt do it justice.

Some of the parts to go into it, missing dual Raptor X's and an 8800GTX

Just wanted to shwo off the case more than anything, was skeptical about it after paying so much but after opening it i am still impressed by the beauty of it, the pictures dont do it justice - its build almost perfectly, no sharp edges, excellent HDD rack etc

What do you guys think? :)
 
people will justvtell you it was a waste of money and you should have bought a stacker or lian lie PC7 8-). lol


those cases are awsome though. they are truly beautiful

heres a couple tips though.

When installing the mobo, loosen all of the allen bolts thathole the case side / tray to the chassis

use the white connectors for the front fans - not black.


enjoy :D you have a beauty there mate!
 
Must want to SLI them i'm guessing?

Lovely case by the way... reminds me of when I got my ATCS 101 Coolermaster :D
 
If your planning on putting SLI in this case, I would reccomend making a new windo for the case with a fan mounted in it. The case cannot really deal with SLI'd ultras or GTX's
 
I love the design and finish of those cases, but why oh why did they have to plaster etched repeated logos all over the whole thing?! It's a darn sight more tasteful than the black 1st edition though. :)
 
Hey mate - how much did it cost? Looks awesome! I was gonna get one when I got my stacker 832! Looks beautiful I have to say :)

As near as makes no difference £260 :o

I was going to get an 830 stacker but wanted something that would look nicer in my room

Not going to be running SLI in there, well - yet at least, i'll go down that route another day.

Just have to wait til christmas for the Dell3007 now, hah :)
 
Lovely looking case, its a case to last a life time :)

I thought that of my Coolermaster Black Widow too, alas i took it to dreamhack in sweden and the evil baggage handlers managed to dent and bend it all through lots of packaging..

this one SHALL last a lifetime as it would be too heavy to take on a plane anyway :P
 
The case for life.. I thought that about my original CM201.. Now i find myself wishing it had 120mm fans...
 
My CM201 does have 2 120mm fans.. mind you I had to cut them into the roof myself and attach a radiator beneath them :)
