lowfat Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 This will be my third attempt at what I think is one of the most awesomest cases ever. First was way back when w/ an 830. Then a few years later w/ an 832. This 'new' 830 when I got it. Was playing around w/ ideas... Started sanding down some of the plastic. Had to tap a few new screw holes as Asus seems to use their own special layout. But if fits well enough. And a few other pics. The Hyper212+'s are going to be used for testing and fitting purposes. The CPUs will of course be watercooled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowfat Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 Test fitting. Literally no room for cable management, which obviously I expected. So I cut the few holes I needed. May need one or two more yet but not for a while. One thing I can say is the quality of cases back then is so much higher than now. The motherboard tray is 2.5mm thick aluminum. Exterior panels were 3.0mm thick. Then compare against my PC-A77F Lian Li which uses 1.5mm all the way around. And a few pics of shavings because they look cool.

lowfat Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 I polished up the Supreme HFs the other day. First block I did w/ my old polishing techniques. Stock vs polished Then I went OCD on the block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
