    Maybe you could still have exhaust at the top, but instead of that grille (however awesome it may look), maybe you should just have two 120mm holes, with the same three bars that are on the side running through them?

    I like the new render, maybe at the top at the end of each side?

    I like the last design.
    I think you have to cover the optical dirve, like a stealth mod ore something else. I think that looks better.

    The last render looks awesome....if only it were blue and white instead....but your project so obviously you get to choose the colors. The Red/White looks great so now it's about time to start a thread in the project logs and get modding

    All in good time. This Is my first mod after all and I want to take my time. I will be ordering the fans and sleeving here soon. The milling won't be done for a while, that's one thing I REALLY REALLY want to take my time on and make sure I do it right. As soon as I get parts and start making some real physical progress Ill post in the project log section.

    Anyways, +1 for the 2nd renderings. Glad you got rid of the ugly handles.

    The bars on the side and at the top looks great, but I think you should install from the bars on the both side in order to keep the symmetrical look of the case.

    Also an accessories like this might look good with the Theme,

    or even better one :

    I like the warning tags lol.

    Well here are the final renderings. I have added an acrylic splitter that will run between the CPU and graphics card to direct the flow of air. I also added 2x 120mm exhaust fans to the bottom to help balance out the air flow. Each 250mm fan pushes 105 CFM and the 120mm fans move 23-53 CFM, hence all the exhaust fans.

    If all goes to plan I will transfer all my internal components tonight so I can start tearing into my A380. Ill start a new post soon in the work log section after I get some photos and the modding will begin!

    I'm still poking.:D
    The grill on the top should follow the lines of the red bulge, (Huur! you said...)
    Right now they collide.

    -NOW... How do you open this thing?
