    I like it, especially as you've gone with a colour scheme...unlike some who think the more lighting the better.

    I'm personally going to be going for black with blue lighting

    Did you make the LCD panel set up from scratch or did you buy a kit?

    That's gorgeous! Plus you have a VERY similar rig to me - even the sticker on the optical drive! Lol I love the PSU's - I know what you mean. Mines the Butterfly version, and 480W, but apart from that, similar rig. Mine looks alot more cack though.
    Good Work!!!
    And welcome to Hexus btw.

    That looks awesome! like the sidewindow

    I like the dramatic effects of lights, i have an acryllic beantech case in clearblue that has lots of lights, will have even more when the uv cathodes are fitted, like blackpool illuminations in my bedroom when the bitch is fired up

    Cheers for the positive comments guys
    In response to some questions, The LCD pannel is a Matrix Orbital MX222. Expenisve but well worth it imo.

    And we have another Thermaltake psu fan lol. Considering its a 360w and what ive got running off it with rock solid rails within 5% is an achievement itself! God help me if it was a Qtec

    Im think Im gonna ditch cathodes tbh. I was using sunbeam ones, allthough bright with good colour, it only lasts about 4-5 months. I think a few strategically placed blue lazer led's would be better. Oh and btw I rigged the cathode on/off to that toggle switch on the floppy bay

    Ahh, that's what that switch was, cool

    If you're getting rid of the cathodes would you sell them? *hint*

    I like the MX2xx displays. The only thing is that the drivers for x64 don't work on my motherboard.

    Bloody annoying.

    I've noticed your rig is shiny and dust free. Did you clean it for the photo or do you clean it regularly?

    I clean it ocasionally. But the dust filter in the intakes does a good job.

    Im afriad you wont find a case like this for sale Yo may find one 2nd hand.
    Coolermaster droped this case from their range and replaced it with a crappy thermaltake wannabe case that soils the name "praetorian"

    Ok. Whats the model number? Or is it just known as a "praetorian"? I'll keep an eye on eBay...

    I've gotta say that is gorgeous, makes me wish I bought that case instead of my CoolerMaster ATCS-710-GX2 in Gun Metal Grey when i bought it about 3 years ago. I love the side window too, was it part of the case or did you make it yourself?

    I'm really impressed, good job!!!
