sad.gif Sorry to say that , im downgrading to a single level casing, due to lack of budget already, to many hobbies to play with and i wont be able to spend $$ on watercooling. + i know some of you might say its a waste and its like a never ending case modding story, it will to be end soon before CNY.
I already planned what to do,Yes i Do regret why do i spend to much time on it , end up now downgrading.Guess I learnt a lesson, i would like to say to those new outcomers into modding. Plan before you mod your case, or not you will regret.

already filled up the remaining holes.
