Not finished yet, been a few months in the making.
Corsair 700d stipped back and repainted gloss black and arden blue, new plate cut and bent so that a 360 rad would fit in the bottom, a plate made so that the psu can bolt to the rear of the case sideways and the door holes cut etc

Not new but...
...had a little clean up and since it was getting warm now I swapped out the Gelid Silent 12 fans on my Thermaltake Frio and put on the slightly higher RPM Zalman LED fans that came with my case. Also added a fan back in to the bottom for the same reasons.

Anything specific?
well you can configure ikea products to your needs, take measurements of what you need and then find the closest to what you need from here

Well, this is how my system is looking at the moment
all that case for that tiny little motherboard? lovely motherboard though, bought one myself for future plans
For the moment you could say that, but i fully intend to add a new gpu and water-cool it with an extra rad in the front of the case. So a m-atx case would just not have suited.
Got to agree with you, its a cracking little motherboard for someone who isn't bothered about have 4+ pci cards installed at any one time. A joy to overclock on and the other features are quite nice also. I would have liked to have got the z77 Formula for the extra i/o connectivity, but i personally didn't think it was worth the extra 100+ for my needs

Decided to remove my sabretooth p67 armour as the block type bit which is above all the io on the mobo was pushing against the tubing which was bothering me. Now I just need a gtx 680 with that cool 'geforce gtx' logo in green to feel happy lol!!
Cleaned up as much as possible after upgrading to X79 platform and getting a new SSD for OS. Next time I upgrade I might have to get a Coolermaster CM690 Advanced II nVidia Edition since it has better cable management options.

@Gripen90 Looks nice apart from that case! 
I'd get that sprayed/powder coated black personally! Unless you don't have a window to show off that kit.

Could you cram any more gear into that case?
Well there's just room for another harddrive/SSD if needed be

The original CM690 is from the "pre-internal-paint" days (got it back in 2009)
getting it black inside would be cool, but since the case has a green acrylic sidewindow on it I actually like it's all more "green" inside, than if it was all black.I can't be bothered to pull everything apart to get it painted properly black. Black interior will have to wait till I get Coolermaster CM690 Advanced II nVidia Edition some day
