My Custom Case (R-Red)

Looking good. Would like to build my own case....One day

You and me both. We'll get there eventually.

Nicely done so far, water cut aluminium was never going to be a cheap option but achieving the same result with a dremel would be, well, horrible. 200 euros well spent (relatively speaking :) ).
 
Congratulations! Case looks fantastic, would love to get somethng like that myself, i'd pay good money for one like that!!
I hope your dad makes a full recovery and soon, i see its been a while so it must have been a serious operation.

Personally id sell it OR get a new mobo to take dual x16 XFire?

Thanks! :)

he's ok now but i'm too busy with school assignments and projects at the moment. maybe Christmas holidays will be busy with the case :)

I think i'll sell it as changing my motherboard and overclocking all over again is too much hassle and time consuming. i'm happy with my performance anyway.

I'll sell you the finished case (when its ready) for €450 :D
 
here comes an update guys!
