Thats beautiful. I guess the only worry now are the dust mites.

The fans in the main body are all thermo controlled so they move only a nice slow flow through the top of the case Interior temps are about 18c. The 8 fans that pull air through the radiators are 61cfm and the air is pulled in from outside the building through the 2 drier vents. I will have to do some cleaning of that chamber once in awhile. It has been designed so the sides can be removed for inspection and cleaning with out draining the system.

iride4u Getting extensions and running as much around the pumps has helped but I still have a ways to go. Some shields would help a lot I will be calling them tomorrow with some suggestions. Outstanding. I've thought about this a great deal and hopefully MM will incorporate your ideas. I'd love to see them "go the extra mile." I'd buy a new one if they expanded on the cable management aspect.

sims36 those quick disconnects are a great idea, i may have to look into those With Quick disconnects there are two types. The first is a high flow but when you disconnect them you need to dry them out . the second is a lower flow model that I use and they are almost zero loss.

If MM comes up with a cabling scheme as awesome as the 800d you can bet they will get some greenbacks from me. Atm, if i get the UFO case Im going to have to create some tubing for cabling. hmm.... *sratches head*.... I'll wait x.X not like the HAF932 is a bad case by any stretch. Those QDCs look mighty appealing to me now though lol

Not meaning to highjack your thread iride4u but adding to the discussion on quick disconnects. For two loops with removable tray you need 4 of them and it makes job of tinkering with your setup easy. I like them and will continue to use them in future builds. They are expensive but well worth it.

I used 3 per loop 2 going to the lower pedistal and 1 between the component and the res/pump combo. this allows the components to be removed without disturbing the rest of the system. The hardest part is going to be replacing the pumps.

It is a lot cheaper to do one case properly than multipule cases half way. This is my third water cooled case and by far the easest to work with.

First of all nice job iride4u. Being a larger case yes the normal cables are short, but it keeps me busy always looking to make my case nicer and for me that equates to fun. I love my MM mainly because of the space. So much easier to work on, especially the older I get. Now I could stick my head into it to work on tight spaces (lol) and those of you that wear glasses know how hard it it to get good focus sometimes. I just made up some cables recently and now I can control everything including my bench setup from my normal spot with the ECP. Also the Kooance quick disconnects make removing stuff like the cpu block or even the whole motherboard (MM has removable tray) in just a few minutes. This case is definitely a keeper. Ive had mine for a year and I still find stuff to do to it so stick in there and have fun http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/8356/001cwr.jpg http://img709.imageshack.us/img709/9106/019mg.jpg

Hashiee I like what you have done with the ECP. I just ordered some Y cables fron Performance for the case leds but they may be able to be used with the ECP also. This is the best case I have ever built.
