Default Internally water cooled CM690

Some of you know that i had a plan to install a dual stealth radiator on the top of my cm690. I planned it out and came across a few issues but worked through them and i end result is this.
I cut the plastic area first that was blocking my radiator

Then i cut the metal mesh grill on the top, took a few blades.


Today i cut out the area where the radiator would sit

This is how it would sort of look like

I filed down the edges to give a bit more room for the radiator fans

The holes i drilled for the zip ties


End product and i found that i did not need the zipties at all


I had to make some last minute adjustments with the plastic on the top panel and currently the radiator is sitting slanted but right now i am just exhausted and my body is aching. Thank you all for looking and thank you Juggalo and others who have helped.
