Looks great, and i like the red

regret it now

Quick mock up of the mid plate & cover. The Aquaero XT will be mounted on the top part (upward facing)

Slick!

Does look good but I wonder if the white Rads stand out a bit too much now you've moved away from white fluid.

Pgreenwo · 5 May 2014 at 21:39

Thanks Mole - I put some black rads in when I was having a mess around and it just looked boring without them. I'm really happy with them to be honest. The logo on the midplate will balance it out more too.

I really like this build. shame caselabs aren't UK based. would reduce the cost a bit (maybe)
I think the white rads look awesome in it! livens it up

Will reduce quite a lot tbh

UK import tax & delivery from the USA (took 3 days with Fedex) Equated to £80 - Not bad really for a clever little tank.

don't say things like this!!! If I spend this much on a case I will get my head removed.

My old trick is "I'm getting this but selling that" keep both they never notice! Go on treat yourself

Just waiting for the midplate now so it may be a week or 2 before I get it back.
Other than that all done (for now

) Still need to tidy up the cable situation but it's not too bad. I don't know why I spend so much time on something you can't see. I hate crimping!

Anyway Mole where are you picks on the TJ

just treated myself to a 750D not long ago haha. but caselabs is definitely in a league of its own so I might "sell" my 750D down the line and go for it
