Nice looking project...
about your mobo tray config... I manage to do the same thing in an ongoing project... here is the link Un1ty that will give you some ideas... my case was tiny compare to this one... but the main key is to relocate the PSU... cheers!

Thanks a lot! I'll be sure to take a good look at it!
I don't need to relocate the PSU though, I have enough room!

On with a small update.
I finally got around to doing the first part of the back of the case.
A couple og pieces of .5mm steel:
Fast spot-welded (Don't hate on it, it's good enough and I'll smooth it out. I never weld anymore! :lol: )
Now it's time for some bondo and a paint job, then the back should be done!
A little envelope of happiness arrived from MDPC:
Not much, but yet a small update!

Moarrrrr!

Yup, and the best kind as well!
It's gonna be some time before I start sleeving though!

Another small update for you today guys.
It's slow progress but I've never really modded a case before, so I'm taking it in little steps!
I don't know if anyone has anything bad to say about the Fractal cases, but one thing I presume I will never hear is "They used to few rivets!" :lol:
On with it!
I cut a bit off of the side of the MOBO backplate to make room for it:
Mounted at couple of pieces of aluminum angle. It has to be remounted somehow:
Testfit seems promising:
Unfortunately I have to remove a bit of the dvd-cage. (Beautifuly marked in red)
So that's it for now. I'll get the cage done tomorrow, and then it's on to the next thing!

I think you have also to make new hole for cable management...
Anyway, as I presumed this rotated motherboard tray is e vary challenging and interesting feature.

I don't know where that should be needed, but you may have spotted something that I have missed!
Yeah, it is quite challenging! I kinda like it!
I feel the result might actually turn out the way I want it to! -
Yet another small update!
I cut the drive bay:
And then mounted it in it's original place with screws for now.
I got the damn moboplate in and mounted with 3 screws for now. No need to put in rivets when I'm pretty sure I'll have to pull it several more times!
It's a small thing, but it finally feels like I made some progress!
Now I can get on with thinking up how the internals will look in the end!
From the back:
Now I need to cut a bit more off of it, that should be done tomorrow!
C ya then my fellow modders!

I was thinking to CPU power and to external peripherals (as now you have them in the bottom of the motherboard tray). But maybe you were thinking to another solution...I'll be waiting for it.

You are very right, and I stand corrected!
I'll have to find a way to get the 8 pin in there somehow!

Thank you very much! I love to read posts like this, that really is the reason why I keep doing this!

Another boring update for you guys.
I'm in the middle of figuring out where everything goes in this case.
Since this is the build with the most room I've done, I actually thought it was going to be a breeze to just throw everything in there... Boy was I wrong...
But just because I'm lying on the floor staring at the case, does not mean you shouldn't have something to look at.
Since I need 2 pumps for this build, and only have money for a single Laing DDC I decided to bring in an oldie!
Some might already have guessed where this is going if you have seen my WaterCooled CarPC, and the rest of you... I guess you will find out!
The first babysteps, to make sure I can get started measuring everything for the re-build!
That's it for now! Always leave them wanting more!
C ya soon amigos!

nice idea

Thanks man!
I just hope it works this time. I'm something like 50/50 between modding pumps and killing them!
But I decided to try again! The last one works perfectly in my car!

So am I sir, So am I!
I have so many things I work on at the moment, so I can't be bothered to finish one thing before I start a new one.
Damn this brain of mine!
