Strix 3090 oc Z590 glacial 11900k Rog 1200 Thor 64gb Dom 3600 Too much storage to compensate for bleh core count   Summary of what I did here. #1 Painted case white pearl and flat black. Matte coat on top #2 Painted radiator and radiator cover Satin jet black #3 Black stain oak veneer cover for the psu shroud (went a little too dark killed most of the grain lol. I tried it 3 different times and well at the end picked the least grained one. #4 Hydrodipped all the black plastic on the case to carbon fiber #5 Lian li sl 120 and 140s converted to black and white with vinyl #6 Rear cover is Carbon fiber white and black vinyl on one side (embossed the logo but the white makes it hard to tell). Other side of the cover is perforated leather, but all the case components make it hard to see but what gaps can be seen from the main view, you just see leather. #7 tubes are matte mixed with jet black with no clear on top of any kind. Tried a few combinations this gave me the most of shinny but not too shinny. #8 bought the case twice to get 2 glass doors because CM can't get a man a door. LOL #9 Some other stuff I forgot, or don't want to disclose

Last year I got the 928 and did a dual build in that. Thought it would be my final case for a while but then the 909Ek dropped and once again I couldn't help myself with case hoarding. 
My 928 will be coming apart for some upgrades and changes. Getting all the Intel out of my life, it's nice going back to TR on 3rd gen.  Liking the 909EK case functionally speaking but it's one of those cases that takes smart choices and lots of small work to look clean and remain a daily use build not one that sits on a show floor.  Made some subtle changes so it's not identical to the other 198. I know of 1 that's quite different. Threw in a group shot of last years InWin build.
