    Thanks, man!

    ;)

    Hahah...perfect? It's not totally done. I have plenty of cleaning to do and finalize a few things in it. Scratchbuild's coming really soon.... trust me on that.... ;)

    Thanks, mate!

    Hahaha, thanks man. The LED on the GPU I'd never touch anyways; I may be crazy, but not that crazy, lol! I'll never see it in back. Like I had stated before, the hose-coil spacing is being fixed because I'm not completely done with it yet. Light-bleed happens, especially with Lian Li chassis! ;) Yeah, the fangrill in the rear....I've noticed that too. It's just the hub itself. Nothing can really be done about that. I thought of putting a red hub sticker on it, but ditched the idea. It won't matter much anyways, lol. Thanks for the props, Xtrafresh!

    Lol, taking a pair of pliers and squeezing the life out of that LED would be one of the first things you'd see me do. I'm told that replacing a lead is real easy too. I'd very much like to RMA a card once where the red and green lights have been switched around :lol:

    Good call on ditching the sticker idea by the way. Maybe some red UV material could have saved you, but it really really is not worth the effort :hehe:
    I'll go back in lurk mode now, waiting for the final photoshoot :thumb:

    You can cover the green LED with a bit of red plexi.

    I suppose I could. Initially, I didn't have the LED showing at all. When I get new GPU's, I tend to remove the double-slot brackets from them because I hate them and switch them out for a single-slot one. With these new GPU's that have a status LED, I had no way of showing that LED. So that's why I drilled out another PCI slot cover in order for the LED to show through.

    This is beautiful case. Its so amazing how it looks stealth when off, all black, hiding all the goodness. Then its showing everything inside when turned on. I love it....Excellent job man...

    What was that woman's name who went to jail for 'insider trading'?

    I know nothing.

    Ask my wife Marilyn she will testify to that.
