* Deleted prior posts for brevity - Gentlemen - here is the completed result! On the right was prior to me getting the lighting arranged around the side panel... on the left is the finished result :P I have one more cable left to run! I'm sure those with OCD will find it ( it's the panel LED cable.)

    I'll also do a full review on this case after... I know it's a mid sized, but :P I have a few critical things to say about how they designed this.   Also it's not nearly as heavy as a few the youtubers would have you believe... ( those boys need to start lifting )

      CASE - LED's enabled...  even through the tinted glass the corsair fans up top are blinding.

    Great looking build. I used the same case for my girlfriends build and have to say it a good looking case. As for your cables right now they don't look bad it could be better but no shame in what you showed us. Hopefully the planned AIO is EVGA but that is just because having the matching RGB lighting I feel is really cool.

Hopefully the planned AIO is EVGA but that is just because having the matching RGB lighting I feel is really cool.


    I went with a corsair 280 mm to replace my water 3.0 because i can't bring myself to trust thermal take any more.  I would of went with EVGA but would of been an extra set of LED fans, and I've had no issues with corsair AIO's in the past. 

    https://www.corsair.com/c...atinum/p/CW-9060038-WW


    As for the cabling, it's not awful, but I'm not doing all my cable wraps, and tie downs until I've got all my hardware installed :P  I've got red and black cable extensions that will be feeding into the Pci ports on my rtx card and motherboard you can see one already installed on the top left hand side of the case for the PC power. I think with the white lighting it's going to look ok :P 

    Just in the process now of removing the dg-77 decals and the white out line around the edge of the case...
     stole the girlfriends nail polish remover unfortunately whatever paint they used doesn't react to acetone so i'm gently going at it with my pocket knife lol.

    * Build fun! Corsair LL120 fans doen't work along side the HD120 RBG fan controller :P 

    - The LL120's need the commander or a seperate USB hub to function apparently...  
    So from i'm getting from this the hd120's will function off their original hub but it will be hooked up to the commander pro :P So another few days until my lighting is taken care of 100% .  

     Guess it was just a dead rbg port.. going to get the commander anyways for the software control.

    Still waiting on the NEW AIO, and fan controller so I took the time and started cleaning up my extension cables and adding the cable combs onto the PCI - and 2 motherboard cables...   really tightened up the look - just need to get those 2 last parts in and clean up the spider web of "fan" cables running all over the place ( I could straighten them up now by hiding the runs but whats the point.

    Corsair h115i platinum is now installed -   Now i'm patiently awaiting my controller board and extensions for my RBG strips to be installed.

    Managing this many wires in such a small space is definitely becoming challenging not going to lie :P

    I was thinking of the Rogue One build someone did. The internals are about the same and the desk setup is about the same but the case was very different.
