This has been build in progress but I believe it's finally finished.

The victim case is the Apveia X-Qpack, and stock before pictures of the case can be found here, http://aspireusa.net/product.php?pid=176

Ok to start off lets looks at the hardware that is going into this case,






Now on to the modding, here I stripped the case of everything and cut all the grills out in the from as this case is terrible with airflow



And with the front grill cut out, I added a 80mm fan to the fron of the case


back fan grill cut out,


Motherboard with all the good stuff ready to go in


Little personal touch to the video card fan



Had to cut the case to get my video card power connector accessible


Everything installed:


Added a 80mm slot fan to help the PSU exhaust the hot air




This case originally had 3 acrylic case windows and this case already had terrible airflow so I removed the to side ones and replaced them with regular screen material and this increases airflow 4 fold







And the real shiner of this mod is my own personal work,I'm not an artist but I tried my best, I painted this onto the window,took me 3 hours to get it right

From what I can see, that came out great!

Is that your own art? That's a very cool drawing.

Looks pretty good. I'd love to see pics that were a tad bit less fuzzy, because I have a feeling they aren't doing the rig justice.
