    what you think people make a plexi cube like the invisable case?
    or make a 2 tier desktop like case , botton tier for drives and psu's and top for mobo?

    for the invisable case
    http://www.bit-tech.net/article/72/

    and for the two tier idea

    I don't plan to copy them exact, that would be retarded.
    I want to make my own completely but I just want to know what idea you people like better?

    when I am making it I will totally write an article covering the whole thing.

    I like the invisible case more.

    I've done one that looks a little like it;)

    but it doesn't matter... you better choose which one you want to base your acrylic case on than listening to people that don't have the same taste as you... you may be disapointed in the end if you don't follow your own taste:D

    well that the way I see it:lol:

    Mine was based on another plexi case from koreanmods who looks like the invisible case.

    the hard part is to calculate the exact size of the pieces if you make them pre-cut.

    Considering that you like both and don't know which to choose I would go with the invisible case, pretty cool:dude:

    Can't go wrong with Linear :lol: and you can have some guidlines too. if you choose the one from korean mod... well unless you learn korean, you won't know how it was done:D

    If I were to choose, I'd go for the 2 teir. Mostly because of it's looks.

    I would go for some mix of both cases, i like the blue things in the 2 tire case and the smoked plexi, so i suggest build a case like linear (invisible case) but with black smoked plexi and those blue things (atleast thats my opinion).

    The 2 tier one from KoreaMods looks damn sweeeeet but takes up a lot of desk space.
    Would go for a more convetional tower shape using smoked plexi and of coarse some bloo lighting.

    What I think I am going to do is go for the 2 tier idea but a lot smaller then they did.
    I am going to make it just big enough for the motherboard and cathodes then on the bottom everything will be tight together.

    well thank you for your suggestions people. you were all quite helpful.

    on the top I am going to have a few fans or just one in the middle, and then on the front I am going to have 2 blue glowing clear fans on each side and I think the same on the back so it will create a nice flow of air.
    the one on the top will get rid of stagnet air that isn't in the currents and seeing as hot air rises then it is in a good place.

    as for the bottom I am not sure yet I have not put too much thought into the bottom heh.
    the top part has to be big enough for my orb chip cooler anyway so it will not be that short.
