    How did you get the wires out of the ATX connector to sleeve the wires?

    Well i did bought the official pin removal tool :wallbash: . However it was useless because i decided to shorten the ATX, thus i simply cut it to length and re-soldered the ATX pins (which i bought from Farnell too).

    Is there any other way of extracting the pins besides buying a tool, as this is a little expensive just to remove it once?

    Sure i have used the 1mm screwdriver from these cheap-ass kits for the ATX pins too. Insert it flat between pin and housing, then turn 45 degrees to push in the hook.

    Yes, a Beantech BT-80 i believe, first generation. Had to cut the PSU mount to fit the PSU. Anyway it's NOT the BT-85 :cooldude:
    Should you go for a Beantech, i be warning you, the rods that hold the panels are not finished properly, they appear cracked. Haven't seen a single BT that has good rods.

    Thanks :rock: .
    No flashing Luxeons for me though :cooldude: . Gonna need some advice from some PIC masters here to do a PWM RGB Luxeon fade circuit, that what i always had i mind.
    The 5W are insane, but have a limited lifespan, besides being bloody expensive!

    this is the only clear case that i have ever seen that i like, i got a bunch of friends that built clear cases and they look like crap because they did nothing with the wiring. seeing this makes me want to go build my own. this case is incredible. I can't stop drooling! :jawdrop:

    On a side note, what camera are you using, all of your photos are crystal clear?
