Here we go!!!
Today the start of a new build with a super case: the CaseLabs Magnum M8 Labs
Sponsored by...... CaseLabs, Lamptron, Highflow, Coolermaster and EKWB





First my thanks goes out to Jim (CaseLabs) for providing this beautiful case
Received this beautiful gift on my birthday


Offcourse unwrapping it right away



Once out of the box





One of the finest cases I've ever seen, quality is superb



And with an XL window on the right side


And also on the left side

After admiring the outside for some time, the inside

With 3 HDD cages

Attached with screws and rubbers

Pins to hold everything in place

With two vertical accessory mounts



Once everything is removed there is a lot of space for a nice WC setup


Other side also perfect quality

Place at the bottom for a 360 radiator

Passages for tubes and / or wiring


8 Slots is enough

And enough space for various purposes

Also with a Horizontal Accessory Mount

And included 2x Lamptron switches which also perfectly finished

Already sleeved

The windows also very nice and simple mounted

Nothing pasted or with bent strips, but with nuts

So always easy to exchange if necessary. After damage or any other acrylic color replacing. Clamping mechanism is also well thought



This is also applied to the front and top panel, which is also removable


Space for 3x 120mm fans

But that's not all. There was another package


Quickly unwrapping it again

And it is the extended pedestal, for all your radiators and other stuff



At the back holes for 2x 140mm fan


So much space inside, but I choose for a bracket for 2x 360 radiator

The front also has a removable panel. Always nice to mod

So the extended pedastal. Lots of extra space, a real nice addition

Once installed everything, I was shocked

Really big




Some more pictures of the beautiful extra addition





So a new build with a superb case from:

Before we even get to modding, an overview of all the accessories
One Standard HDD Cage is coming with the case


Ordered two more

As I mentioned earlier comes with rubber bands for installing at the front with screws

With gaskets and mounting bolts for the HDDs



The SSD Mounting Kit

Two Vertical Accessory Mount


And the Horizontal Accessory Mount


These will be very useful

A PSU Support Bracket For heavy powersupplies

A lot of Flex-Bay Device Mount

Two x 360 Radiator Side Mount For in the pedestal

And a Bottom Accessory Mount


To replace the standard bottom covers, consists of three sizes (picture is the longest)
A few HDD Opening Cover Plates Replacement cover plates for the HDD openings on the PSU side

A Large Attachment Plate for various purposes such as installing reservoirs or miscellaneous



And finally, all the spare parts comes with the case



Of course I also had time to do some modding. A little teaser
