Sorry about the wait guys but things are now starting to move slowly, i have the case stripped down, have installed the 3 x 120mm Rads, and marked the front door up, you can see what i will be cutting out and then inserting a dark grey tinted piece of acrylic for a window. Hoping this will give a good effect when looking at the new 120mm TB VEGAS fans

Front door mod done, it gave me know end of problems with the plastic melting instead of cutting with my jigsaw, so didnt get the finish i wanted so ive used edging strip to tidy it up, but im not happy with that so im looking for better quality edging strip.
However i reckon those blue LEDS will look a treat on the vegas fans behind that smoked acrrylic.
Heres the fans.

And heres how the Front door window mod looks, im going to redo the Silverstone badge at the bottom of the door and centralize it with the window mod.

OK some more pictures coming now, ive had some more bits as i managed to get a GTX670 and a Corsair AX760 PSU off Amazon for a bargain price, saved about £100 in total compared to other retailers
So today concentrates mainly on testing and getting the GTX670 Water block and back plate installed.
First up pre-testing the GTX670 using linux mint...

Next is the mounting of the 240gb SSD, used a paper template too mark and drill the holes, i used mobo standoffs for underneath the SSD to give me a gap too the side to enable easy cable connections.

OK, now i have what ive done to the floor of the PC to hide all those ugly holes, basically i took a piece of acrylic cut it too size and then transferred a WWII desert British 8th Army battle scene painting on to it. This was a large sticker i had made via a company on the internet, im quite liking the result. Also as you can see mobo is now in.

Some more pictures of leak testing, i had an issue with a seepage on one of the connectors, so i had to drain and disconnect the offender, upon inspection i found that it did not have a thread rubber seal on it, silly me for not checking on install, anyway i got a seal fitted hooked it all up again. Have been leak test running now for 4 hours with out leaks, i always do 8 hours in total.
