Just that looks good to me . Good luck with the rest of the painting, sounds like it's going to be very tedious.
I work out some thing this morning that will make my job a little easier. I am going to make a stencil for the checker patern. I am going to use that stencil and a felt tip pen to drawn every thing onto the case. Then I am going to use a brush to paint every thing.
Then finally, I will spray paint every thing with a clear gloss finish.
In the main time, I am going to try to find some cheaper places to find 120mm Red LED Fan. I really do not wnat to spend about $120 on case fans.
[EDIT] Okay, looks like I found of my suppliers that will do the for about $60
I am just going to have the LED Case fans for the lighting. Originally i was thinking about hadding a neon tube. However last time I had some cooler master LED fans, they put out enough light as it.
So I will be having 4 LED case fans that will be around the motherboard. So I think that those along will be putting out enough light.
A few things are on my mind are
Video Card. One thing that I am conserned about is the HSF on the Gigabyte ATI Radeon HD 4890 1GB Video Card is rather loud. Currently i have it on my case with the side panel off. First I though It was the CPU or my other case fans. However on closer inspection I have found that it was the heat sink on the video card.
I think duing the final stages of this project, I might be installing an after market GPU cooler. However I will see what that will be light when I finally put every thing into this case and seal it up.
Sound card. I already have a PCI Sound Blaster X-Fi Extreme Music. However the motherboard is coming along with a Realtek Function driver for Realtek Azalia audio chip with a Dobly Home Theature Logo. I am questioning where I stay with the onboard sound card, continue using the PCI Sound Blaster X-Fi Extreme Music.
Memory. Yeah Yeah. I ****ed up on ordering the ram. Both myself and my supplier forgot to put a T in there. Currently i am running DDRII FSB 800 chips? Do I dare go up to DDRII FSB 1200? Is it worth it? [/EDIT]
That looks like it would have a pretty good airflow. Is the heatsink is going to be facing up and down (air flowing from the bottom up and then into the case fans on top as exhaust)?
