I used a 3” hole saw, c-strip rubber fan molding, skull and cross bones laser cut fan grill w/ net guard, vantec 80mm blue/green spectrum uv led fan.

My first custom built computer, my first pc mod, many more to come.

Please comment, I would like to know what you think.

Thank you

i would love to have one of those cases but they do not make them anymore and are hard to find so i am settling with this case which i am going to get soon,

what kind of case is that?

I have no idea what brand it is.. It was a super cheapo case I found at my local computer shop and bought for like $30.. I had spent most of the money I had at the time on the computer components, and didn't have much left for a decent case. It's worked out pretty well though, and I like the handle on top.. Helps a lot!

My rig: Nothing special but need to get afew mote things to complete my set up (LIKE TIDY THOES F$%&*NG cables)

I have recently just added

CoolerMaster Aquagate watercooling kit (overclocking)

Vantec Spectrum UV Fan Card ( to increase airflow and getting cool air to my VGA )

Lian Li 120mm Blower Fan ( to remove hot air from the VGA )

Cold Cathode Light Kit - UV

I will be adding more neons and i will cable sleeve the excess wires so that airflow increases and that it looks better too :cool:

I actually built my own cube case. I ended up tearing apart a super cheapo case for the drive racks and mobo tray, but heres some pics

heres a pic from the very begining when it was pretty much just a frame still..

I also decided to go with dual power supplies, mostly because i could. these turn on and power off together thanks to a lil rewiring, well worht it though. also note the sweet fan grills, and imagine those fans lighting up to blue

IM001583.jpg

heres a good side view pic while the case is empty, you can see the blue fans with scorption fan grils and the two PSUs with their car casings.

IM001582.jpg

time for the good stuff, post production pics..

Sorry for all the pics, but i dont generally get a real good chance to show this thing off. I ended up sleeving all the wires with blue uv reactive sleeving. all ide cables are rounded and uv reactive.

theres 1 blue cathode and 2 uv cathodes along with 4x 120mm fans, 5x 80mm fans (and thats not counting PSU cand CPU fans).

To control all this stuff i put in 5 switches in the front that light up clue when lit.

Just got done watercooling my Gigabyte Aurora, leak testing it at the moment hence power cable not plugged in and somewhat untidy cables. I know a lot of people dislike this case, but personally I think it's great.

Thats a very nice setup there Brodel. I am abit worried about that VGA block putting alot of weight on to the card which looks like it will snap or something. Nice kit tho :angry: lol

Thanks, yea it does look as if it puts a lot of weight on it but to be honest it's fine. I think the photo makes it looks worse than it is, the hose supports a lot of the weight and it isn't actually that heavy anyway, a lot lighter than the old Maze 4 blocks that's for sure.

Hehe ah i understand. so what kind of tubing is that brodel you have there? 1/2"? and that is a Maze4 block on the GPU? looks very sweet your kit.

Yea, that's the 1/2" tubing and Maze4, tdx on the cpu. :)

one warning on the maze 4 though, mounting ram sinks is a complete bitch. lol

LOL. yea i already have zalman ramsinks and by the look of things, you do aswell. That tubing looks quite fat looking at it from that pciture. Those clamps you have, what size are they? ill need about the same as you which is 10 at least to complete the loop. and what kind of coolant and your is in your system?

    • Crazy. The government fired everyone who was capable of actually understanding this. More security theater. Just checked it is gone from Claude.

    • Quantum Error Correction Validated in Nature: Microsoft and Quantinuum Log 800-Fold Improvement Two years after the original press-release announcement, independently peer-reviewed results published in Nature on June 10, 2026, have confirmed that Microsoft and Quantinuum achieved an 800-fold reduction in quantum error rates on real trapped-ion hardware — the largest gap between physical and logical error rates ever independently validated.    What Quantum Error Correction Actually Does — and Why Breaking Even Is Hard https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318329/20260613/quantum-error-correction-validated-nature-microsoft-quantinuum-log-800-fold-improvement.htm   Quantum Computing Wiring Bottleneck Cracked by HKU Silicon Carbide Chip at Qubit Temperature Engineers at the University of Hong Kong have built the first cryogenic control chip that operates at the same temperature as superconducting qubits — 10 millikelvin, or just one-hundredth of a degree above absolute zero — without generating the heat that has forced every competing approach to park its electronics hundreds of meters of cable away. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318325/20260613/quantum-computing-wiring-bottleneck-cracked-hku-silicon-carbide-chip-qubit-temperature.htm  
    • RevPDF 4.5.0 by Razvan Serea RevPDF is a free, fully offline PDF editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux that lets you edit text and images directly inside PDF files — no internet connection, no account, and no cloud uploads required. Unlike bloated alternatives that demand subscriptions and constant connectivity, RevPDF fits in under 60MB on desktop while delivering a complete editing toolkit: annotate, redact, sign, compress, split, merge, convert, and reorganize pages, all processed locally on your device. Smart font matching ensures edited text blends seamlessly with the original, and multi-language support includes RTL scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew. Where most PDF editors force you to choose between features and simplicity, RevPDF manages both. You can build interactive forms from scratch with text fields, checkboxes, and dropdowns, permanently redact sensitive data before sharing, draw freehand on contracts and diagrams, and add custom watermarks — all without a single file leaving your machine. Edit Text and Images Directly Inside PDFs RevPDF supports true inline PDF editing — not just annotation layers on top of a document, but actual modification of existing text and images within the file. A smart font-matching engine identifies the font used in the original document and applies it automatically when you make edits, so changes blend naturally with the surrounding content. You can reposition elements, resize images, and update text across single pages or entire documents. RevPDF 4.5.0 release notes: This is one of the biggest updates to RevPDF yet. A lot of things people have been asking for are finally here. New Features Auto Redaction Permanently redact sensitive text and areas from your PDFs before sharing. Clean, irreversible, and fully offline. Comments, Links & Bookmarks Add comments for review, insert clickable links, and create bookmarks to jump around long documents without scrolling forever. Find & Replace Search across the whole document and replace text in one go. Long overdue. Split Pages Vertically or Horizontally Split any page down the middle, vertically or horizontally. Perfect for scanned books or double-page spreads. New Drawing Tools More tools for freehand drawing and markup, better for annotations, sketches, and detailed notes. Continuous Scrolling in Editor The editor now scrolls continuously through pages instead of jumping between them. Working through long documents is a lot smoother now. PDF Metadata Editor View and edit the metadata stored inside your PDFs, including title, author, subject, and keywords. Better Font Matching Text edits now blend in more naturally by doing a better job of matching the original font. Tabbed PDF Viewer Open multiple PDFs at once in tabs and switch between them without going back to the home screen. Add Links Insert hyperlinks anywhere in your PDF, to external URLs or to other pages within the document. Share & Print Shortcuts Share or print directly from the editing screen, home screen, and viewer. No extra steps. Minor Updates Paste images directly from clipboard into your PDF New image editing tools for more control over images inside documents Bug Fixes Fixed file saving issues on Windows and Linux Everything still works fully offline. No login, no cloud, no account. Your files stay on your device.
