Anyone know where I might pick up a new front and top panel for a CM690 II?

Had a droppage related accident while bringing the PC back from a LAN session yesterday.

Ah, OK. Didn't realise they had a EU spares site, google search only turned up the US one.

No standard front panel, suppose I could go white...

Why don't you try a white/black theme using these 2..

Side panels as black will still look good

Total of about 40 pounds with shipping.. Depends if ud prefer just to buy another case (lite version is 69 or 59 i forget)

I'm guessing the top panel doesn't come with the control board, so I'd have to get the USB3 board as well. Meh.

If the Lite is around for £60 then might as well get one for the parts I need and flog the rest off as spares. I'll make do and mend for the moment, then look after Christmas. I like the case, only recently fitted the H100 to it. It fell about 4 foot, amazed the top of the front panel took the brunt of it and the main structure of the case is unaffected.

Top panel comes as a whole it seems

Top Panel for the CM 690 II Black & White

Contains:

USB 3.0 x 2 (internal)
USB 2.0 x 2
Mic x 1
Audio x 1 (supports HD/AC97 audio)

P.S Lite has no top HDD x-dock

I had a CM 690 II But its now housing a server and my systems been moved into Bitfenix Ronin. Just incase you need a new case which is very similar and just as good if not better
