Hey
I've not been overly happy with my current Coolermaster ATCS 840, mainly due to its looks and the fact I find it boring so I was looking around the interwebs and the only case I like is the TJ11 from Silverstone, though its price tag is huge and I'm not sure about those massive holes in the side of the case
So I've decided to design and construct my own case, now this case is just for me so I've designed it around my needs (very little in the way of optical or HDD bays, but loads of watercooling options)
The case will be constructed from Aluminium except for the mid-plate which will most likely be 5mm acrylic.
My other modding experience was Project Element (Link Below). This will be a huge learning curve for me, but I love a challenge

I've done some sketches and renders, so here goes!
The case will support a full thickness (60mm) 120.3 rad in the roof, a 120.1 in the front and 2 x (upto) 40mm 120.2's in the bottom
Tools and materials should arrive mid next week which will give me time to finalize the design stage and clear out the mess in the garage to make some room.
I will be using PC bits from my current rig as I don't have the cash for a complete re-build and watercooling will have to wait.
anyway please let me know what you think
