just want to make a comment here.

Now you all know i love a bit of artwork.

But i never liked the idea of artwork based on a game.

the game looses popularity or gets old, then your stuck with a case with game artwork.

Now no doubt the artwork will be amazing.

But may be better to get artwork that is more unique.

Up to you, just saying.

OCO may be gone, but allows you to start another one, so not so bad really.

Have no fear Pablo, game is a classic already and is likely to be for years to come. It also ties in with certain aspects of this build/design perfectly too. You'll see ;-)

Tetris, Pong, Galaxian?

Am I getting warm?

If it was space invaders, then id buy it from you for sure.

But dont know the rules on licensing for copying game artwork etc.

Pretty sure you cant just copy it?

Hope im wrong, do you need permission, or is it ok if your not making money from it etc etc etc.

I havent a clue, but would love to know?

I fancy half life or halo as they are pretty big impressive titles.

My money goes on the game being Team Fortress 2
I have my reasons.

Nice case though, very expensive. Shame about the plastic drive bay locking malarky

Could be command & conquer. A NOD theme would go with that motherboard.

Satin black

Black, looks ok, but not very adventurous.

Whats the difference between Satin and Matte.

I like the matte look, but never seen Satin in person.

[Aaron]

Satin is nice

i asked the same question when i bought my spray paint from halford and the guy said satin is somewhere between gloss and matt.

Correct, matt is the bottom of the list, satin in the middle then gloss & high gloss at the top.

Forgot about these pics, may as well get them added though.. looks clean in satin black.









Pics aren't the best, think I was having an off day with the camera, focus points are totally wrong.

Seeing as all the lian-li cases Im after are out of stock everywhere Im starting to look back at this case. I'm wanting to put a PA140.3 in the top and a PA140.2 (maybe two) down in the front where the hdd cages are. I know this can be done in lian li chassis' based on the a70 but not so sure about this case, what with just a single big fan down the front and that top mesh. Any thoughts from anyone?

[Mattmc91]

if you don't use the top drive bay I'd imagine you'd get the 140.3 internal, but as for the 140.2's... not sure.

[TheHowster]

Yea not too fussed about losing drive bays. Going push pull aswell. In the lian li pc-a70f the two front fans cooling the hdds are 140mm and with a slight bits of modding into the drive cage for the chambers I'm sure there would be no problem. My concern in this case is there maybe even less room down there and also that top section with the multifunction panel might mean I can't properly mount the 140.3, or at least not with all fans having free airflow.

[Mattmc91]

yeah could be very temperemental to work with, still a lovely case though, rigid design

[TheHowster]

Oh yea definately more solid than the lian li's. Lots of features but looks a bit tougher to mod.
