I ended up stripping more out of my case than I expected during my Zalman Fan Controller install.. I decided to mod the case.. This is just to float me over until I get a new case that is more liquid cooling friendly. I'm shooting for a Mountain Mods U2 UFO case, most likely.
On the list:
Install 6 Channel Fan Controller -Done, just not plugged in yet.
Reverse Mount HDD's -Done
False Bottom drive section, Just the Fan. -Done
Re-Do Cable Management -In the Works
Moved UV Light mounts and transformer -Done
Find something to fill the open single bay. -Not done yet
Added 3 Holes in Case for Cable management. -Done, but need one more.
Here's some progress pics.. It should be done tomorrow. I need more dremel cutting wheels.
Pre-Cable management. False bottom section, just the fan pre-fit.
Moving the Front Panel wires. Eliminated 1394 and FT Audio seeing as I don't use it. I pulled the ft panel block and clipped the wires. All that's left is Power, HDD, reset and USB cables.
Cable Management progress. I can't put the HDD's on the bottom due to the Pump and Rez. -I gotta move those. Taking up valuable real estate.
Cutting the intake for the PSU. I'm gonna move the feet of the case. -The line's not crooked, the feet are off.-EDIT- I don't think this is going to be a good idea, still deciding if I'm going to finish it. The MoBo power supply cable would be in a better position with the PSU Upside down.
PSU And Random pics.
Progress as of now.
