It was definately interesting, 1.5m tall and barely anything remaining from the oringal cases. I would like to thank all the sponsored that helped create this case and also those that helped. Its time to start benchmarking and overclocking, maybe a little bit of gaming to.

Hey mate. Ill have new picture up this weekend. Been super busy and havent had time to keep this forum up to date. Sorry for the delay.

Mate. Im wearing my Australian Safety boots. whats more real then that?? haha

Cut the rear panels out. I know its placed on top a small table.. but it still give you an idea of just how big this is.

Some more updates as we pull the cases down. Everything is being removed and nearly all internal pieces will not be used in the final build. The Cases are a lot lighter now.

This is my build that took me a few months to do due to time restraints. Was actually only a few saturdays worth of work in the end. Put a Dan Woods Pc Mods sticker on just to get my mates page some Rep before i started my own. There is no build thread for it cause I was slack. I have a build coming up in a stacked Core X2 and i will start a build thread for that here and on www.facebook.com/castlemods Love these cases to work with. they are tight with all this gear in there even though they start of so big but I guess I just need to go higher with them then dont I. In a few months I will be looking at updating this case with a complete overhaul and adding in another Core X9 to add some more watercooling gear.
