I recently moved, so I decided to invest some money and time on a new computer. I have been in love with the l3p desks and so for years(specially this one http://www.l3p.nl/files/Hardware/Deskmod/Progress/550px/totalomgevingopen%20%5B550x%5D.jpg).

Until now that I finally decided that i'm going to do it. Any tips is really appreciated, type of glass, etc...

So,I want to know if any of you guys have any drawings done for a case already? Or any tutorial(I doubt it, i've been looking that for months).

Thanks a lot,
Best Regards

Basically so long as you have a decent amount of internal space on the desk then you should be ok to mount the standoffs and brackets, Expect to have to make some brackets or solutions yourself if it does not fit properly.

As long as you have a simply desk then it should be simply to mount it.
I have seen some builds where people just took a desk and then mounted the case on the underside.
Basically reduced the workload of mounting it within the desk.

Ultimately what you are about to embark upon is a very specialist form of Modding.
Its not the most complicated or labour intensive, but it can be tricky and time consuming.
If i were you keep it simple, just mount the Motherboard and the basics. then work your Water cooling around your current build.

Also you may wish to consider mounting your PC at a 90 degree angle, this allowing you to expel hot air from your GPU's at the back of your desk away from you.

Ontop of that you will need water cooling, or atleast some CLC's on your CPU and GPU.

Finally i wish you luck with the task, its going to be a bumpy ride but im sure you will get there :)
