Default My Silverstone Raven is here

Ok, the Raven finally arrived and I'm really happy with it . This was the first time I had a case with cable management and I don't think I succeded , but I'll make a second attempt in improving it.

I'm getting some blue and white CCFL's tomorrow, what do you guys think?

Here are some pics :

Well, my next step in CPU cooling will be liquid cooling. I always seem to buy the wrong heatsink .

It's too deep (the rv02).

You should also make picture of your case from the left side (without side panel obviously). That way we can rate your cable management

Ok, so I started modding the case with CCFL's


I attached two UV coloured CCFL's on the two ventilated area's on the side panel, so now the area looks like this:




The UV light was hard to capture on a picture so it became blurry and blue , but I hope you get the point

I also illuminated the window with blue CCFL's


So, now the case looks like this:





Tell me what you guys think of it .

P.S. I already know the cable management is horrible .

Happy birthday! Case is too flashy for my taste, but I hope you like it.

Nice to have cable management, right?
