Last look at the cooling

The fitting is on the line going from the GPU to the bottom of the case around the base of the pump. Here is a pic without the hard drive cage installed so you can see the routing.

Hard Drives Mounting

Having changed pump configurations from the original design, I had to design and make a difference hard drive mount. This mount allows for ample room behind it for the pump.

Front Grille Cloth

I made a change to the way the grille cloth is mounted. Having the front grill open allowed any sounds to come out of the front of the case, and I don't really need the cloth for any airflow. So instead of having the cloth mounted to a frame, I mounted it to several layers of cardboard, and make a solid wood piece to fit behind it. This should help redirect any sound, and also should make the cloth last indefinitely.
