Good job it's cost me next to nothing then as Mountain-Mods kindly sponsored this build after seeing my previous two efforts:cool:.

very well deserved too, mate.

My girlfriend, a dedicated non-techie, actually emailed the UFO and Tiger vids to her mates!!!

Looking foward to this next one eagerly. Best of luck.
 
Looking forward to the build log as I really like your attention to detail - but that case is way to big...

...Could fit my whole passive loop in that thing.

But I do agree on the 'normal' tower case point - just not quite as radically as you do :D Subscribed

Edit: How far are you taking the angel theme - just aesthetic or more.
Afterall they are in the almost every holy book except the Vedas (or Hinduism in general i believe)

I have nothing against tower cases but spending £200+ on a case that loads of other people have is not my thing, I like a little exclusivity. The TJ07/V2000 are fantastic cases, many people buy them and rightly so, no argument there but I feel they've been 'done to death' now.

The MM series of cases are not everyones cup of tea, I don't think they could ever be classed in the same league as Silverstone or LianLI for style but thats not what MM are aiming for (at least I don't think so). The MM cases are industrial in looks, a look I personally prefer and something I can work with and improve upon. It's akin to buying a 'paint buy numbers' or a blank canvas. A lot of cases these days are so similar it's hard to put your own touches on them to make them stand out from the crowd. I prefer a blank canvas to work from ;).

I just prefer something a little more 'individual', something different for better or worse.

The Angel theme will be carried through the build I hope but within reason. I'm not going for a religious theme if that's what you are asking. It's more about colour, form, a few little touches that are in keeping with the theme as it were.

Thanks w3bbo - I didn't think you were creating an ecclesiastical case - just thought you might take the Greek/Hebrew translation of angel - meaning messenger - a bit further. Like some temp displays or a led screen, that sort of thing.

What your saying about a blank canvas / individualism makes lots of sense, and will make the log more intresting - thanks for the elaboration, means a lot to me :)

Just had some very good news guys. Enermax have very kindly offered to add to the sponsorship and are providing me with a whole lot of fans and the Revolution 85+ 850w PSU.

Here are the fans which will suit the build perfectly:

and the PSU which OC3D reviewed recently:
