What's the question? Are you looking for new case suggestions?

 

Do you want to keep these dubiously useful accessories?

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

I'm wondering if I can get a windowed side panel for it. other than that it is pretty cool. And yes, any suggestions. I would have post pics before but card reader malfunctioned. Old In Win case is what I swapped from. 

 

First pic is my old In Win case.

Second pic is how it is set now.

Forgot,

It also has a creative Sound card Audigy 5 RX. 

 

Hope stupid card reader was a fluke. Never had luck with them. Might change indicter LEDs from blinding blue to amber and red LEDs. I hate those blue LEDs.

 

Fan is weird too in the front of the case. I run it with the speed switch on low and let the board control it. I had to make a custom fan curve with fan control starting at 70% to turn the fan at around 450 RPM. In high the fan will run at 850 RPM an be very audible. Running it that low causes fan errors at start up. I set the BIOS setting to ignore. Even setting to see 200 RPM would cause errors. Errors would stop when PC warmed up. I'm wonder if I should use a PWM fan in stead of a 3pin with DC control set in BIOS. Spins slow because it's 180MM. Wonder if 200mm would fit with some manipulation. Noctua 200mm PWM. I have one in my Corsair 650D on a Asus B560M-A and it work fine.

My mods were uninstalling the 3.5" 3 drive bay. This allowed completely unimpeded air flow.

Being that the drive bay used a stupid amount of room in the case I removed it. The SATA SSD used is under the 2.5" USB 3.0/C front bay ports. Uses very little room inside of the case. It's lower than the mother board.

Is it still cringe worthy?

 

VRMs at idle 54C

GPU 44.5c Idle.

Case is almost silent at idle.

Front fan: 500 to 50RPM at idle

CPU fan 500 RPM idle

Exhaust fan: 500 RPM idle.

CPU temp: 30c

 

No RGB. 

What Should I do for a Window mod?

Yes I like the BR drive and Front IO as it is setup now.

I bought this case because it is well made and thought out. As tight as it is, it is very open inside. I removed the CPU heatsink support and the 3 2.5" bay. I did this for function over form.

Middcore,

Just defending life choices.

 

Now from a more serious take,

The thing works well, and it's small enough to store in a closet, take to a Lan party, and set up quickly to game and browse while running cool and quiet.

 

Reflecting on the PC case industry, (in a whole in 2023)

Maybe that is cringe. 

 

Any lighting is in my 650D in a Minimal state.

Nobody attacked your life choices but we all suffer from insecurity from time to time.

Speaking of bad choices I will attempt a Noctua 200mm PWM fan if the front of the case. 2 sets of mounting holes, might fit, 20dba vs. 43 dba at top RPM.Nf-A20 PWM. Air penetrator that it in it now sounds like a jet when rpm rases. Also, not PWM and RPM curve sucks. Biggest and loudest fan in system.

I did squeeze a Noctua NF-A20 into it. It's held in by friction force. The side panels just make it on and The bottom of the front panel has a slight gap. It's what I can do wiout cutting the case and I'm lazy.

Before cases were everywhere with windows we just modified the existing panels. Usually with plexiglass or acrylic, as it's easier to cut. Then cut the existing side panel.  Plus then you can make it whatever shape you want, here is one of my examples (from a long time ago):
