    Today it's saturday in Japan, time to make something. I think about to paint some part's but it's raining :(
    My friend gave me this Colussus M, definitely this m-atx case is awful to mod them so i decide to use just the frame.

    I create this block cover, to hide the old Swiftech Apogee XTL looks good
