Lol i was going to do exactly the opposite on mine.

Silver on the outside (i'll change the finish for sure) and black on the inside.

i plan on painting the outer shell black while leaving the inner part silver (will probably still repaint) I wish to one day put X99 parts in there

X99 aye?  Which one? Yeah repainting would be a good idea since it has some scratches on it Metal looking paint is so hard to paint in my opinion Can be such a bitch

most of what looks like scratches is the original anodized layer being scratched off, so its only a few atoms thick (no need for sanding) so there will be little work to prepare it. there is only one big scratch on the outer shell that ill need to deal with. 

 

im not going for a metalic look though. ill get matte black on the outside and the original matte silver on the inside, powdercoating it

 

and yeah so far i have planned for a 5820k, 128GB of DDR4 (when 16GB udimms come) and (as a start) 2 GTX770s. If i get a good job by the time i upgrade though, ill be going dual socket Xeon E5v3 and 128ish GB of ECC rdimms.

DDR4 is so expensive right now x') I had to make a choice a desk or an upgrade for my components.

I just have a simple ROG R4E, 3930K and one GTX770.. Maybe the upgrades or for the future. Be sure to post some more pictures

I like the design, will there be any repainting? Always wanted to see what you could do with that case, thanks! I'm waiting for more.
