Man this case is really starting to come through for you, good job. I would also leave the knobs black, the contrast does it good.

I too like the knobs black. Gives a nice contrast. I wouldn't paint the stock ones but replacements should be easy to get, so you could paint those.

I concur. I would find replacement knobs and paint them blue to match the fans; maybe ones that stick out less. I would not paint the stock knobs in case you do not like them.

With the metallic silver nosecones on them. I think the chrome will look nice. CD got some of the 120mm's for Indignity's 900 case and they look good. I wanted to get some blue led ones and these kind of have everything i wanted in one fan,lol. What ya'll think?

Your progress astounds me! I wish I had the time and patience to get into case modding because the final product on most of these build logs is insane!

A kudo to all of you modders out there!

Why yes, yes they are. LOL, I think I'll be happier without them.

Parts: So i got a little bit of unexpected $$$ and I decided to go and finally start building my new mobo/cpu/ram (and use onboard video for now + my current HDDs) now. I just sent a MO out to whe3ls for a msi p6ngm-l 7050/610i mobo, hope to find a used E2xxx somewhere on the boards and some DDR2 ram and I'll be good. Phoenix will indeed have new hardware!!

Got the drives stealthed in and the psu braced up yesterday. Pics up today, I have to re-do the drive covers though, I did them with some velcro I had and I'm just not satisfied with it.
