Looks really good! One thing to grip about... You used a white zip tie around your GPU power cables and it sticks out like a saw thumb lol. Change it to a black one and you have a 10/10 mod there mate!

Actually Smokie, It's a UV blue ziptie! (the only ones I have left at the moment. Some extra small black ones are on their way tomorrow). My camera doesn't pick up the glowing objects that well.....LOL

excellent job Ram +rep

I really like what you did to seal in the stock holes, thats very cool. You liked and used my notch idea, I like and may use your idea to cover the holes - awesome

do you get any vibration at the fan intake on the bottom? either from the filter or the panel itself? Just curious because I recently swapped the stock intake fan for one with slightly higher cfm. gpu dropped 5c on idle and load, but there was a nasty vibration in the filter/panel area. I am getting new fans and a controller so I may do something similar to what you did on the bottom and not use the shroud that comes with the case.

When I had my Kaze 3000 down there, I used the shroud with it. Got some wicked vibration that way. Try it without the shroud, and see what happens.

yeah its odd, because even if you press down on the shroud theres still a vib in botton panel, and separately in the fan filter. CM should have made the fan filter slots more snug to the frame of the filter. I kinda want to use the shroud because with the angled rotatable vents I can point it's flow to different spots, especially right at the gtx280. I have it like this now and I dropped 5c, and thats on a quiet 66 cfm fan. Im gonna get a 100+ cfm blowhorse and a sunbeam rheobus extreme controller and see what new lows I can muster

I did the same thing there for awhile with a PVC 45 degree elbow. It felt like a leaf blower at the end and it worked really well with my 8800gtx. Since my 280 doesn't need quite as much cooling, I got rid of the setup. (I actually have all of it tucked away somewhere. See pic). I like the pvc because you can get ALL of the air going the direction you want and not just most of it.

On the vibration: Maybe take your filter screen out of the bottom and add tape (or other material you can use as a shim) to it to make it fit a bit snugger in it's slots. Just a thought.
