It's a nice case but the HDD bays and expansion slots should ship black. This would make a nice little mATX Asus Gene gaming PC.

Back on topic: Good luck with your project. I hope to see future updates.

When I have the money I want to make my own case using a 3D printer. They are becoming more and more affordable but not quite there.

Oh and please make the water cooling internal. So ugly external.

No longer going to water cool. Going to use phase change now

Dam that will be cool but louder then an aeroplane. Does the cold bug exist with the 360's processor? High end phase-change can drop to minus triple figures. Also any special features system wise? Will it be retail/glitch/dev/dual nand/custom firmware ect...

Well this is my RGH so it will be dual NAND running fusion and a stock NAND. Yes once it hit low enough it will quit working but it should be a problem.

Nice! I will have a similar setup when demon releases in the UK.

Going for a 1TB HDD to use with Fusion (FATXplorer formatted unless someone releases a free tool) with a custom 320GB HDD (SS flashed) for Retail/CFW. Will add additional air cooling because my room temperature is usually very high. Eventually a 3d printed case but that might be something for next gen.

Any ETA on next pictures?

Haven't done much besides removed the HDD racks. Need to order a few switches and figure out phase changing.

Done a lot in the past week. Umm waiting on some barb fittings and still collecting parts for my phase change. Being on a phone I can't post pics

Well I keep forgetting about this thread and updating it but oh well.

I started off by removing the HDD bays just so I would have more room to work.



Next I was trying to figure out how to mount the MOBO without drilling new holes in the backplate so I came up with this:





Now it has the bend it in because I couldn't figure out where to vertically mount my res. So my res will be mounted there. I thought it came out well for never bending plastic before.

I then picked up an ek supreme waterblock off someone on EVGA fro a good price. The wholes didn't match up which was ok I figured I would just drill out new wholes. Well it wasn't as easy as I though, I had to merge 2 of the whole and I did this:



But I did get the waterblock mounted even though I'm going to take the bracket to a metal fabrication and have them clean it up or make a new one:





As I type this I'm working on mounting some leds on the front IO panel which will be wired to the controller leds. I am also wiring the USB ports to the front panel along with the putting in 2 vandal switches for the on/off and disk tray eject. I have yet to mount anything inside the case as I'm waiting on my cool runner 3 and demon. Don't want to get it all hooked up and have to take it back out.

And here is a picture of one of my cats hiding



And a picture of some chick with a rockin bod



To do:
Get switches mounted and all front IO panel stuff wired
Install Demon
Install CR3
Make Radiator guard
Figure out if I can power 2 fans + my pump off my xbox of if I need to use my molex power supply. More than likely I will.
Mount everything in the case
Cut whole in top for demon update board and nand switcher
