Demond reacted to dintid in Core V1 Owner's Club
As everyone might know, the sides, top and buttom are all interchangeable.
The front also have the right dimenstions to turn around to fit the alignment you choose of your top and buttom.
In order to be able to turn the front though, we need to modify two things:
1) For the front to actually be able to turn we just have to cut off the two little plastic "pins" placed in the middle of the top and buttom of the front.
2) Make new notches for the front IO panel in the metal chassis.
Why would I want to turn my cabinet?
I wanted to view my entire motherboard and gfx through the side window, and not see the PSU.
I have further changes in mind, but am currently waiting for some custom watercooling items to show up in the middle of january or so (full motherboard waterblock and such )
The AIO watercooling installed now (Corsair H80i), is just untill the other items shows up.
Sorry about the "order" of my images. Thought I could rearrange them.

I was wondering. there's a really big cut out on the front skeleton of the case. is it compatible with a 240mm radiator?
also hope there would be a step by step guide on how to build a DIY liquid cooling with this case.

I just received and unpacked mine. I love the size and the interchangeable panels. Now, the only thing that would make it better is if I could easily buy replacement panels - in particular I'd REALLY like an option to buy separate plain blank panels. No vent holes, no window, just formed metal. That would make it easy for cutting in my own mods and whatnot. Being able to buy an additional windowed panel, or vented panel would also be nice, but the blank would be my favorite option.

Hi !
I like this chasis. it is great. I have a suggestion.
You can add a slim line odd by cutting a slot above the 200 mm fan, or give a choice if someone wants odd then reduce fan size to fit in an odd.
A slim line odd will not take up much space and not obstruct on any other parts. antec isk600 has done this.
Give the buyer a choice of 1) as is 2) with slim line odd 3) choice of side panels 4) you can also make a top panel to hold 200mm fan additional if desired instead of the window.
I hope my ideas are implementable in your design.

I hope to have it completed before Halloween. Just need to order the 160mm radiator and the two 80mm fans and I will have all the hardware I need to complete it.

here are some pics of my core v1!!! This is definitely a great case. For one, I love how easy it is work in this case. There is so much room. It is very clever the way the motherboard gets mounted (NO MORE JACK SCREWS!!!) and the screws that hold on the panels are perfect since they won't scratch the finish so also maybe include similar screw for the power supply as well. Cable management is a breeze. The rubber bumpers for resting the power supply on are a great touch. Things I would like to see in this case would definitely be some rubber on the bottom of the feet for anti-vibration purposes. Think about including a switch for fan controlling for the 3 fans that this case can hold and maybe include an adapter for that connects to the USB 3 header to also make it compatible with USB 2. So all in all this is an amazing case and I would definitely recommend this case to anyone that wants to build and small form factor pc!
I hope to do more with case. I want to put 80mm LED fans in the rear and install some LEDs to illuminate the case. Hope to also add a better cpu cooler as well since the ones supplied with AMD APUs are kind of loud.
Thanks again!

First up doing a quick dry fit to see if all the parts I want to use will fit. And it looks like they will. The 200mm Radiator however will need a bit of coaxing.
Ok so now that I know that the parts that I wan't to use will fit. Drilled out the rivets that hold the Mobo plate in place so I can mod it to fit the 200mm Radiator and to prep it for paint.
Using a Right angle grinder with a cut off wheel to remove the small part support on the left so the Radiator will fit. Luckily the HDD drive cage will make up for the lack o support there.
After that was cut off we switch to a Flapper Wheel on the grinder to smooth out the edges.
Once that part was removed the 200mm Radiator will fit with enough room to do a push/pull fan setup
Oh man that is a super tight fit..Running that 24 pin is going to be fun
Alright time to get this bad boy ready for paint.
When sanding your case for paint. There is no need to go all the way down to the metal just take the shine off.
And there we have a white Core V1.
Now we need to get the Thermaltake Toughpower Gold 750W PSU headed in the right direction.
There we go much better.
Painted the SSD/HDD Caddy with Banner Red.
Thermaltake was gracious enough to send me two of the 200mm Luna Red LED fans. Thanks guys
All the Hardware (minus the 160mm rad it is drying its paint)
Having a bit of fun with Tt Dude .
Going for a blood splatter effect I think it came out rather well.
check out the reflection off of the mirrored floor.
With all the hardware crammed in there you can bet it was no easy task to get that hard-line in there.
After a successful leak test here we go.
Had to get the rigs all shined up for a Local Rock show. Had the Thermaltake Core V1 "Dexter" and Urban T-81 "Man of Steel" folks were really digging on the Core V1. Still need sleeve the cables and do some detail work on the inside to get it ready for HorrorCon

Received my Core V1 today. My initial reaction, this case is awesome. I didn't take off the panels or anything. Great build quality! Then I turned it over and was completely shocked by the plastic feet. Hoping for rubber on them, but can get around it. Other than that, I can't wait to get home and do my full review and put this awesome case together...thanks Tt!
