New problem: I hate the look of pedestals. I really love the proportions of the SMH10. :wub:

I would have gotten the STH10 as you have, but the additional compartment on top just

looks kinda wrong to my eyes. It's an absolutely phenomenal case, of course, but I just

don't really like its proportions. Too narrow and high.

Still, the pedestal would be pretty awesome though. I could have all the HDDs. :D

 

The more the better ! You should really think for the pedestal :D

 

 

This is amazing. Can't wait to see the finished product. Love Portal!

 

Thanks for the support :)

Looks really nice and clean!

 

One thing that stand out is the black sleeved cables on the PCI bundles though, 8pin eps and 24 pin are brighter, which looks really good, too much black in the PCI bundles un my personal opinion.. :)

(Comming soon)

Ye true, but I like it like that, I wanted to avoid to have too much white inside. I should have placed the black wires behind, and not on the front.

are you still looking for a white keyboard? Cos the ducky year of the rabbit (i think) is completely white. might be hard to find though

Yes, still looking.

Thanks for the name, I'll see if I can find it.

I was thinking to do a full custom one with WASDKeyboard. And paint the base of the keyboard with some matte white. I'll see.

Thank you :)

I'm curious, why 1333MHz Memory? Should of gotten like 1600MHz at least :/

There is no big gap in terms of speed between 1333 / 1600.

I do a lot of video editing and 3D rendering, I needed more gigs, if I wanted to combine gigs and speed, 32Gb of memory, lets say.. 2133mhz, would have costed me around 550€. I like Overkill and I'm enthusiast, but 550€ of Ram is simply retarded.

Fair enough, just my opinion.. :) It might also change once you have all the tubing and res' in there.. :)

Its "Year of the Snake" i believe and it has a brushed aluminum case.. :)

Ducky has white keycap sets though too, both for backlighting and for keyboards without backlighting.. :)

(Comming soon)

The year of the snake one is this year's . The year of the rabbit is the one two years back (its the zodiac, for those of you guys not familiar)

I mean, naturally, it would be hard to find, but if you're determined enough, theres probably some dark corner of the internet that sells it.

Uuuh its ugly :/ I'll stick with a WASDKeyboard and white keycaps. But thanks for the link.

The only light I'll add is a Orange LED at the top of my reservoir. Other than that, the XPOWER II already have a shit tons of blue led on it :) This will be the lightning parts of the case.

I'm not a huge fan of cold cathode or led stripes, its too "pewpewpewpew" for me ^^'
