Well actually I have don't that a few times already. As a matter of fact I just put a huge build on hold a while back that is made out of a military J box. This one I'm going with a regular case for simplicity and because I will sell it after!

will do! The original plan was a Gigabyte and 2600k but since im delaying it, it will be more EPIC! By the time I get around to it Im thinking DUAL Engineering sample XEONs and Quad SLI/ATI with RAID PCI SSD! MAX Stuff for 2015 Flagship build!

I think the Lian-Li's clean and serious lines are more close to anything army-like in my opinion..Not flamboyant,but deadly enough

I think the whole theme goes with the corsair better. The side window popping out reminds me of up armored windows. The front grill reminds me of the hood of a hmmwv. Thw front rivets look like how everything is riveted together

I'm with this, but since you're doing a mod, I tend to lean with what jthm4goth posted.

I was thinking, maybe make external rad boxes and make them look like caterpillar track if you're into tanks. But that's just me.

P.S.
I voted for the Corsair case.
