    My friend who bought it told me to not show your face, so he got the troll face. :D

    I intend to make modifications to the mobo to hide the red parts, but this is something to commenting further ahead... :dremel:

    Well folks, today I have some news.

    I bought 8 ADDA fans (each went under U$ 3.00 :rock:), the following specifications:

    ADDA
    AD1212MF-A71GL
    120x120x25mm
    Connector: 2 pin (plug 3 connectors)
    System: FDB Bearing
    Speed​​: 2550 RPM
    Noise Level: 38 dB (A)
    Flow 87,870

    And the pictures:

    The only bad thing about these fans is that drilling has only to pass the screws on one side ... but who says this is problem for me... :dremel:

    I also bought a SATA 3 HD 1 TB Seagate:

    Hope you all liked it :thumb:

    After a long time without touching the case, I made the hole in the front plate and put the button to see how it would look visually.

    Here are some pictures:

    As the case is all the plates apart to go to the painting, I used to make an assembly to get a sense of how it will look:

    It is slow work because I'm really out of time... but I hope to finish soon and finally arrange for the painting and then build another structure... I hope to see this be the last... :D

    Thanks Waynio... and your case are outstanding! :jawdrop:

    Lately, I've had little time to work on the case... and this has complicated the progress of the Mega, but I hope to finish it soon. :D
