Metalfish S5, my fist build.

Griffo

After watching a few of Linus build videos, got the urge to build one myself. I liked the one where he built one using the Metalfish S5 case. so ordered one and received it the other day. I have no experience with other cases so if Linus is happy with it then I guess it will be ok. I thought that it looked a bit plain in silver so came up with the idea of wrapping it in carbon wrap. Not sure if that was a good idea as I have just spent 6 hours cutting out all the small vent holes (approx 2000 of them) I now have a large blister on my hand, But I think it looks way better now. My biggest regret is that I could only find some wrap that was only 200mm wide which required a join to cover the thing and I am not 100% happy how the join is.

Would be happy to hear other people thought of how they think it looks.

Finished the build, am happy with the result. Cpu didn't have a rgb fan, so made one from a spare 120mm I had.Cables were hard to position and hide in such a small case, think the end result is ok.
