    First off I would like to thank the sponsers MNPCTech as well as Xtrafresh and Bill for having another creative and successful competition. You guys ROCK!!!!!

    Thanks also goes to Jez and the SketchUp Components Collection site for all the components we all used in one way or another. Saved us a lot of time and it helped complete our masterpieces...thanks bro! BTW ma-halo to "Marci" for his ThermoChill PA120.2 Series Radiator and "Unknown" for his Optical Drive. The rest of my model was all custom. Oh the Corsair Dominator-GT ram you see on my mobo is now available at SCC site.

    Cheers, for all your comments guys...

    You guys....

    @Cheapskate, What can I say.:naughty:
    @rowin4kicks, Thanks vote the vote of confidence but the competition is not over yet.


    This design fortunately came together very quick and was a whole lot of fun doing...but I'm getting a little ahead of myself here. The write-up on the model as well as more pics coming soon.:thumb:




    Scooby:naughty:

    Since we are automatically in our own group do we still get 3 votes we can do?

    Also do we have a limit on pictures still?

    In the first post of this thread it says we can have 1 main pic and 4 others, but I already see many with more than that. So what is it going to be?


    thanks for naming my case btw i wouldn't have come up with a better name than that.

    I already got my advertising going lol

    Oh no, I really don't have time to create some welcome page this weekend. I need hours for that with my sucky English... :( Well, it wasn't about winning anyway, right? :p

    Everybody seemed to be ignoring the rule, so i did the responsible thing: ignore it :dremel:
    Upload as many pics as you like. Please choose the one you like best, so i can use that as a teaser in the first post of the upcoming votingthread.

    And yes, you are allowed three votes besides your own case. I'll also have to add my own votes manually, i'm in every group :lol:

    Aterius, you can also just upload the pictures. Your case is strong enough to attract a fair amount of votes on its own :D

    good luck to everyone!! think im going to refine my original design, and start up on another idea. couple of them actually. id love to see a top loader dvd sff case, and am thinking of an adjustable tower design thatll allow you adjust the height of the tower just by sliding the top half of it up or down, and it having modular parts so you can add/subtract hdd/cd-dvd drive bays.
