The internals r exactly the same as ure GT case. Front n back 120mm fans. Typically loooooooooooooooovely Lian Li quality n construction. thumbup.gif






QUOTE(Skylinestar @ Dec 10 2006, 05:57 PM)
1. the HDD bay cannot be removed.
2. doesn't come with front filter like the old PC-7+ (ask ATE, they say not selling filter)
3. front USB is at the top, making installing ODD at the top bay impossible unless u willing to let the ODD pushing the USB ports to the top, like bending the top panel.
*
1. Who sez can't remove?
2. The filter mounting is the same. Just need to buy the filter. Want to buy sure can 1. Just need to order n wait. Or can just use aftermarket filters if u dowanna wait for ori LL.
3.Top USB mount problem is kacang puteh oni. laugh.gif





QUOTE(Skylinestar @ Dec 10 2006, 10:05 PM)

Front 12cm? Nonid lar. It's stock 12cm oredi. Heheheh.

Making the side window n acrylic.

Cutting the acrylic pieces for the top n side windows. C the plastic cutter there. I never like to use plastic cutters. I always use the jigsaw for acrylic work. BUT this was when Agojama decided to die on me. cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif So I had no choice but to use the plastic cutter to finish off the mods.

Side window is cut n drilled for the screw mounting holes. Test fitting the acrylic now.

120mm blowhole for the side window. This was done by dremelling. I usually use the jig. A lot faster with the jig but.......................... no more Mr. Agojama so I had to use the dremel.
