patchwork quilt comes to mind... as long as it looks good on the outside! (then again this is me just taking the lazy route lol)

I added a dual set of cooler Master 12" CCL today, but I'm going to have to wait till it gets a bit darker before I can take any pics. So now I have 7 120mm blue led fans and 2 12" CCL lights, I think that's going to be bright enough.............. :shock:

IF you dont need airflow in the side panels use plexi backlighted with yellow. Or you could have a piece of plexi riddled with holes for the airflow and still have a clear look into the case. We all know you open that thing up EVERYDAY anyway so filtering the air is not a concern, it probably gets cleaned and polished more often than you change underwear. Tha looks really nice Bio....good work.

yeah man, bitchin top panel there :) ;backlit plexi would look cool in that case, like Merlin said, and I particularly don't think you need side panel ventilation due to the fact that your critical components inside are water-cooled. I'm pretty sure you've formulated a plan to keep system temps down, since you've obviously already controlled your CPU and GPU temps. You gonna get some UV reactant coolant for your setup, or are your CCL's capable of making the stuff glow?

This may sound a bit strange, but I don't really like UV even though I have the LanParty MoBo............... :shock: I got the board for it's performance not the UV looks. I don't even think I have a UV light in my house or shop. I'm not 100% sure about what I'm going to do with the sides yet if anything at all. I may just let them the way they are. I do have another idea though, but I'm still talking the details over with the water jet people to see if it's even possibe to do.

Sounds awesome, must be trying to get them to cut an intricate design into the side panel? Or have them sort of "mod" it for you?

I forgot to post up a few pics of my new video card I won in a contest at another site. It's not the top of the line, but it plays all the games I need it to and it blows my old X800XL away.

Nice cooling on the 7800 GT... What difference did it make in overclocking the card going from a HSF to a water block?
