    Looking forward to it, digging the rotated motherboard tray thus far. I've always loved the aesthetic associated with the 90 degree mobo placement in many of Silverstone's cases, means you can see much more the the graphics card too usually, rather than just the top/backplate if the case is below you.

    It's odd, manufacturers sometimes put so much effort into making ther GPU coolers look impressive, and then they're gone an put in upside down in most cases, exposing the usually dull PCB instead of the fancy cooler. Naturally this is often a moot point in watercooled builds, but standard air builds often suffer from this IMO.

    Looking really cool so far, plexi work is always fun.

    Just a quick question about working with acrylic tubes. I know you're not using them in this project, but I thought I'd kill two birds with one stone. Did you use Bitspower Multi-link fittings for the acrylic, or similar ones? I'm a little stuck as to which fittings to order, would rather not get completely the wrong thing as I know not all will fit acrylic tubing. Cheers!
