Small update.

I got 3 1150rpm Gentle Typhoons + 3 Thermalright 140mm fans for the case. BOTH fans are completely silent unless I have my ear next to them (kids, don't try at home). Both are amazing fans, the quality of the thermalright's are great! They come pre-sleeved in some OK sleeving and with a black housing.

This XT block is NOT mine, it's for a friend

Thanks to John @ Jab-Tech for these, there was more in the order like fan pins etc... but you don't need to see them









The quality isn't that great, there are machining marks which defect the overall look of the block.

Hey James what do you think on all the cable routing holes? Do you reckon there's perhaps a few too many?
Wonder if it would be possible to cover up the ones ur not using.
Just a thought.

Also, are you going to keep this project completely internal?

Completely internal, yes. The grommets are good for all sized motherboards, there are too many IMO but that may be fixed
