Awsome! Nice one. However to add an extra dollop of fun in to the pot. Fade pointed out to me today that the graphics card that I am currently cuverting is a biggy at 25cm long (trying not to brag about the size of my non-existant graphics card). So, while Hex was in the other room, Fade opened his covers and showed me the size of his graphics card, and let me tell you ... it's a biggy! It went from one side of his motherboard to the other! So I might have to enter into some angle grinder action, or get a big case  We shall have to see  The Tsunami case would accomodate a large GFX card ONLY if the 3.5" drive cage was removed (means you'd have to put hard disks in the 5.25" area and would loose cooling). |

Had a little look on the Thermal Take site. I see what you mean about the hard drive cage in relation to where the graphics card would run. I'm not planning on having more than 2 3.5" hard drives. So I could put them in a bay out of the way if need be? near the bottom. With a bit of luck the cabels can go over the side or something. Failing that, whip out the dremil and get cutting Purly speculative of course. Twiggeh has got first refusal on this one |

An excellent idear for a PC case. With the added bonus of that you could keep your drinks cool at the same time. Minimise the time it takes to get a cold drink during a game or while browing the WEB. |
