Curious here .. since most P180 user are satisfied with the case so much why sell it and go for other case ... sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif

anyway the MOD is concentrated on making a new transparent side panel plus some bling bling installation ... ???

since the window is transparent ...wild guess only. .

Maybe because of this reasons:
1) Because the casing is using SECC material, so it's freakin' heavy
2) Because there's small room to do anything in that case, hard to do cable hiding and lot's more...

Those are my opinion when i look at the internal design of that case... icon_rolleyes.gif

This casing is indeed not very roomy, only thing worth mentioning is it's sound dampening properties

yeah, no room for my other PSU, and not to mention if i put a 8800gtx sli in it.
but the airflow of the case is still pretty good.
for my lian li, i think i have to open up bays to ensure that it gets sufficient air like the antec.

owh btw,
ian, the side panel consists of only 2 layers?

Wah, my beloved dream case biggrin.gif Although I would like it to stay default/low profile as this is very suitable for a quiet case

Phew, it's been a looooooooooooooooong day. It's raining again................... as usual, at 5pm. Luckily I woke up early to avoid the rain.



Here's what I did today. After making sure the clear window piece fits perfectly on the acrylic frame, I painted the frame black. U can c that it's now black under the protective paper.

Then I moved on to cutting the 120mm blowhole for the window. It's positioned nicely above the lower PSU compartment. This is for intake to the top mobo compartment so the graphics card gets lotsa nice cool air.

The window components r complete. Time to put it together into a proper side panel.
