Well as most people know, I write for Cooler Master on their blog, CMHD. I get to do fun things like builds and guides, how to's, etc. After three and a half back breaking hours of work, this is what I ended up with. Note: It is not a full functional build, but a demonstration of some of the best that can be done with the HAF-XM. 
 
Some extra fans...
 

 
When the article goes up tomorrow I'll link it here.
 
Specs:
CPU: None
Gigabyte X58A-OC
Dominator GT 2000MHz 8-8-8-24 3x2GB Hypers
XFX 9800GX2
EK CPU and RAM block
Swiftec 220
Black Ice GTS 360
18W DDC
HAF-XM
SPH 850 (No cables attached)
Excalibur and Blade Master Fans
 
Feast your eyes on the creation that I prefer to call "Revelations". 
 
Step 1: Prepare

 

 

 

 

 

 
 
 
Step 2: Design the MOST COMPLEX TUBING EVER. It seriously was a pain, but it sure does look good.
 
 
Step 3: Execution

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
Hope you enjoyed.

    Here actually. 
     
    Do you write well? I mean, like solid A+/A++/A+++ grades in English all your life? Writing is of course the main component of what I do on CMHD, so it is very important.
     
    Drop me a PM if you do, and if you're interested.
     
    It's a shame I only get Cooler Master stuff, it'd be cool to get ASUS/Gigabyte stuff as well.

    No I am more of a b/b+ student in writing. I excel in math and history. If you ever need help testing let me know.

    Wait what? I can write perfectly fine when needed.

    Man is capable of as much atrocities as he has imagination.  
    People are, well, only human. We know that. The rule of law is borne out in identifying, condemning, and punishing those who violate the standards on which we all agree. This is exactly what we do in America.
