im waiting for it to open too so I can get a custom plate for a sound card, and one for my sli bridge

Hyburnate · 22 Aug 2013 at 19:31

What price bracket where they in?

Sgt_Pepper · 22 Aug 2013 at 19:35

22 Euros each I think for the 780 ones, he does lots of designs and custom plates too. Someone on here got him to make an Overclockers one it looked awesome

Decent price for a custom backplate! I think i'll get somthing really cheesy on mine like Project envy in green for my green build lol

i did see this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-197-XS looks like it'll do the job nice but its got titan wrote on it and i'd only be a dirty little fibber

EVGA sell one on their site 19.90 euros, under Shop/accessories, it does say evga on it, but its a nice plate.

They go out of stock quickly tho so best to ask to be notified of when they are in stock, if you like them. its what I was gonna buy.
I got notified of stock, but then I found Coldzero.

Ripjaw · 22 Aug 2013 at 22:37

I was looking at that one, i emailed to ask if it'd fit on the inno3d referance and am still waiting for an answer

Wow! that looks amazing! can we see a shot of the other side?

You can see the mod clearly, of course wires are a mess the same as everybody

Blame · 23 Aug 2013 at 12:14

Loving how you mounted the res! I assume the long pipe at the bottom is to drain the loop?

GoogalyMoogaly · 23 Aug 2013 at 14:37

That how I was planning to mount my res (but without the hole in the top).
How did you find the mounting screws? They seem a bit short to me.

WuMyster · 23 Aug 2013 at 15:23

Is anyone having horrible vibrations going on from the HDDs?
The drives are causing the desk to vibrate quite a bit!

The standard screws that came with the combo reservoir worked and fixed fine to the back, will get a picture of them, I even used silicone washers and still fit fine

I'm very tempted to get this case but I am concerned about the dust filters. What filters are present and what would you buy if you needed extra?

I'm not keen on the holes at the bottom of the case!

Sgt_Pepper · 25 Aug 2013 at 18:59

It has one dust filter almost the full length of the front, you could get a magnetised one to stick on the bottom, if your not covering the holes with something.

Mines been running for a two weeks now and there's not one particle of dust inside whatsoever.

The HDD racks at the bottom are the only weak points in what is an excellent case.
