Post by: Caltson on January 30, 2009, 12:57:20 pm: my opinion is that a good modded case absolutely doesn't need those glass side covers, they make the case look cheap.
A case like that should not be made of plastic (wich the most are made of ), but from aluminium, at least, that's my opinion about a good case.

Post by: Fuzzy on January 30, 2009, 06:22:23 pm: Well the side windows are maked just to show inside components, and make the case look "cooler" of course it looks cool if there is cathodes inside :)

Here is some pictures of mine:

Woow, that's quite alot which such a big ass cooler :O
Mine has a a stock cooler and it does around 40 in windows, but tends to go maximum 65 when doing some intense gaming :D

Must be a different chipset, what graphic card do you have? :D

Lol, if the case was upside down, what of sense would the wheels have as seen in the first picture :lol:

It's just like that, It's different than the others, Wich mostly have the CPU on top and Graphics card lower.. This Motherboard is Upside down, yes
