Case : Be Quiet! DARK BASE PRO 900 - Black with front panel/ top removed

Front - 3 x 140mm silent fans.
*Removed DVD/CD Tray to Add 3rd 140mm Fans shortly after (seen below)

Top panel off exposing the 280mm radiator. Normally this is covered by a top panel with air vents allowing it to flow into the case.

* This has been after a bit of use as you can see the dust marks.

Picture 2 - PSU bay tray (Since this shot I've bettered the cable mgmt somewhat. Even with a modular PSU it's difficult to keep the cable hidden.

Picture 3 - Full shot

Picture 4 - Mostly Blue color scheme.

Picture 5 - Red color scheme

Picture 6 - Another color scheme.

Picture 7 - And another.

Picture 8 - Everything is RGB controlled minus the LED strips (Top/ Bottom of case) and the Corsair ML140mm Fans on radiator. The Motherboard / GPU have full RGB color spectrum.

Note: Some pictures are outdated showing my poor cable management and lack of 3rd front fan. This is a work in progress still lol.

Man, I wish I had the resources to make something like this...But here I am trying to find where I'll be staying day by day lol.

These are older shots - which have the DVD/CD tray still on I since have removed and put one of the Be Quiet 140mm silent fans in its place.

Nice specs...But my OCD makes me want to break into your home to do cable management.

I am working on this. It's hard lol. Ongoing process. I now know where everything needs to go. I just need to restart to get it proper.
