Whats up fellow modders! I wanted to share my recent project. The concept for the project is a 4 sided dual gaming PC with a fully custom waterloop built by combining a Thermaltake core p7 and core p5 together.

Would love to hear every ones thoughts on the project. Want to say big thank you to Thermaltake and Apacer for sponsoring the project with their great products!! MOD ON!!!

Hi all, New here and should be picking up my Core P7 tomorrow. My question centers around mounting one of these units on a wall. I'm a bit concerned that the weight once all components are added may be too much. I know this is a new case and there may not be too many people that have done this but was hoping that someone possibly with a Core P5 that has their rig wall mounted can provide some suggestions or lessons learned? All of the pics show the side wings on a table with feet supporting them so I was concerned about the brackets that attach them to the main unit not being strong enough when wall mounted as they would basically just be hanging on these brackets. Any advice would be appreciated, Thanks Jeff

So I'm putting together my Core P7 and am looking at the supplied motherboard tray, is this designed so that you can rotate the motherboard 90 degrees and have the I/O ports vertical? I have not seen any photos of any installations set up this way no matter how I search. Using the tray seems to block the wire management ports as well so I'm wondering why you would do this other than to have your I/O ports exit out the top to hide your cables around the back? Can someone give me some insight into this please? Thanks
