    I like it, looks clean!
     
    Q: the fans on the lower part of the case are just for ventilation?

    System:  2600K - MSI P67A GD80 - G.Skill Ares Blue 4x4Gb 1600 - MSI GTX 970 Gaming 4GB  - 120Gb Intel 530, 1Tb WD, 3Tb Seagate - Corsair HX850W - Creative Sound Blaster Z - LG DVD-RW - Windows 10 Pro 64 - CM 932 Advanced - Edifier S530D - Dell U2412M (1200p)

    Watercooling loop: XSPC Raystorm - EK-FC970 GTX TF5 -  Alphacool D5 with EK X-Top v2 - XSPC reservoir - Lamptron FC2 - 2x Swiftech 360 QP

     Yes just for ventilation and looks.  Essentially there was empty space because the case is big that I did not have anything to put there yet.

    Very clean.  Seems to be missing a custom chipset block(s) though

    Yea I know it looks like a garden hose at that length... 
     
    I was thinking of adding a couple more thing like a flow indicator or a drain so I didn't want to cut the hose yet but I just may.
