    Spray painting was easy, it took about  24 hours (this includes the drying time ;) ) :

    - remove all the black parts (to remove the front locking mechanism  you have to push out the axle) 

    - one layer of plastic primer

    - 30 min of drying

    - 2 layers of red paint (2 min drying time between them)

    - 24 hours of drying

    Changing the LEDs is a bit of a pain :) mostly because you have to drill out the old LEDs (cant get them out because of the glue used by Thermaltake, note to them: use some hot glue next time :D ), the hole operation took about 2-3 hours.

     

    Nice man! i'm loving your build, i will 1 day follow in your footsteps to change the LED's but might have to find some time for that :P

    Hi Silky, i actually posted a tool on the forums where you can check how much power your components suck out of the wall

     

    the tool can be found on this thread

     

    in all honestly i recommend something a little higher than what the calculator says, also gives you more room for future upgrades :)

     

    Do you have any pics you can share with us on the build so far?

  19. What type of cooling do you currently use for your system?

    AIO Liquid cooler due to how much it would cost to do a full custom loop. 

     

    That's true! one of my main reasons too!!  

    Just the GPU block alone can set u back more than a hundred bucks :(

    then you have the pump, res, and all that! 

    But tbh it looks very nice, but i just don't justify the money spent for a couple of deg... i think its more aesthetics .. if i had the money i would defiantly go full DIY though 

  22. What do you look for when buying a new chassis?

    When i look for a new case, i would say the first thing that comes into my mind would be exterior look. I like my cases to be simple but stylish!

    Second would be how protected it is from dust.  Where i'm from the dust is quite crazy, and without any kind of dust protection the radiators and fans can get clogged up within a week or so.
