what does everyone think of the new project name?

 

It's cool. You got the same case as me, great one, but don't expect the paint to last very long if you manipulate it often, I am carefull af with it and I still managed to get scratch on the matte finish. Oh and try car wax on the glossy parts, looks good  :)

CPU : Intel Core i5-4690k @ 4Ghz | Motherboard : MSI Z97 Gaming 5 | GPU : MSI GTX 1070 SEA HAWK X | RAM : Corsair Vengeance 8GB | CPU Cooler : Corsair H110 | PSU : Corsair CX750M | Case : NZXT S340
