Thanks. Yeah i used a dremel. First cut as much of the mesh out as possible with pliers (you could skip this step though) and then masked it up and then cut into a circle. Then i got some rubber u-channel to put around the edges of the cut and make it look nice. It took a few hours but the air flow is much better and much less noise.

Will have to give it ago, I already got the u-channel to do it just need a dremel now. Did you go through many discs when cutting it?

Oblivion · 9 Apr 2013 at 11:44

No, if you buy the proper dremel discs, which are very good quality and cut through the metal much easier than some cheaper discs i tried first, you can do it in one easy. The fact you can then use the u-channel means the cut doesn't have to be perfect either.

Its an epic case. My brother has it. I have a 650D and to be honest think that raven is nicer... Its a big case though (length wise).

It will go under my desk but it's handy it's the other way around as I can then move my Pc to the other side which would be better.

A bit mess with cables

Ive got some plans to improve airflow and sort out the cables :] But that after a while :] GPU before sent as a faulty btw.

Build done, very happy with how the cable routing turned out.

Latest creation

Here's my latest creation, rubbish photos but you get the idea... getting there, but still working on cable management

Thanks, I am really happy with it. This is was my first go at watercooling and actually enjoyed doing it.

Is the vertical mounting as good as it says, or just marketing gimmick?

No idea I had to send it back as the top panel and side panel were both damaged. Decided to stick with my Fractal for now.
