I'm not too fond of it either, but as long as it's tasteful, it's fine IMO. Luckily, this one is rather well done, really, It's subtle enough to look nice, I guess.

Not my thing at all, but it looks well done.

Be interested to know if there were any "oh fuck" moments between pics and whether you can run the case fans very slowly and still keep a cool mobo.

Looks nicely done.

Is the heat exchanger for the water cooling in the bottom? If so if that part of the case, or just room in the case?

Fatherjack : Only one oh fuck moment in the whole build. One of the 'o' rings on a barb was pinched so when the system was filled there were a few drips. Had to empty half the system to put it right but din't take to long to sort. AS for the fans, well I'm not bothered about noise so they just run as they are. The CPU idles at around 32c after being on for about 3 hours.

Fear: The radiator sits at the bottom of the case under the window. I had to remove one of the HDD holders to fit it in but it runs extremely cool.
