What is your current case? "Cases statistical study"

Hello guys.
 
First of all, i already checked the other topics, there are some that have similar title but this is different in context, so please refrain from " this is a repost" replays.
 
I need you guys to tell me what case are you using at the moment, because i want to see how many people use each case, i will be posting the results in charts when ever i have some big number of replays " i will be updating the results as much as i can later as well".
 
so here is how you post your case information, " if you have more than one case that you use, please mention the information for all of them".
 
Use this template please:

________________________________________________________________________________________________

                                     | First Case | 
Case Name/Model:   "write the full name or model of the case"
Year of purchase:     "the date that you purchased the case on"    
Usage duration:        "how long you have been using the case"  
Is the case painted:  " yes/no, if it is custom painted which color"               
Is the case moded:   "yes/no, if your answer is yes, then please tell me which part and post a picture if you can"   

________________________________________________________________________________________________

    

"if you have a second case use the same template and post the info under the first case"

 

 

Please do not post twice so i can count the post easier, if you forgot something, just simply edit your post.

 

Huge thanks goes to any one that contribute with this post in a professional way. :)

Is the case painted: Do you mean like custom painting?Then no.If you're talking about what colour the case is painted,then black(interior included)

Is the case moded: No.At least not for the moment.If I ever decide to go watercooling then I'll have to drill 2 more holes in the roof to offset the rad a little more.
