OP, you should really consider painting your interior matte/flat black, it would make the case look much better. Maybe some new cathodes as well?
Just a suggestion, your case looks amazing as it stands.

I'm actually thinking about painting it a gloss white. With some orange accents maybe. Or I could just get it powder-coated black... still bouncing things around. Thanks for suggestions though.

Yeah it counts, you are contributing ideas! I also think you should strongly consider it for a next build.

Friendly bump I spose... and why not a tip!

Every Tempest owner needs to drill a hole in the top left section of the mobo tray. See why below.




Final result!

This case was my first ever case for my first ever build. Liked it at first however I did encounter some problems. It was woobly and noise from vibration drived me mad. The good thing it is roomy and comes with lots of fans. To me it looks cheap and the build quality was not superb.

It is a good case if you are modder properly but I am not. Also the airflow on the stock fans was disappointing. Even my scout cooled my cpu better went down 8'c first now it came back up 3'c.

If it was all black and less plastic it would be great.

I am sorry to hear that your experience with the Tempest was less than satisfactory.
