My E8500 and Odin GT are on vehicle for delivery So I should have completed pics later on this evening...

I also have plans to make a fully windowed Stacker here asap. I hope it turns out OK, I haven't seen a single Stacker (832/830) besides the ones Performance PCs sell (only as a whole case too).

lol i wouldn't bother cleaning them then since they only smudge, Looks like they only show up in the right light anyway, and if you've got the side panels on you shouldn't be able to see em anyway right?

O ya. The 120.3 is likely a good 3/4 inch thicker than the MCR320. As is I only have an inch of clearance underneath the radiator to the floor.

Thanks Camera's are nice things to have I'd die without mine.

I have some white cathodes around. I thought about installing them, but as is my case was a disaster to wire. All the power supplies sensors make for a messy case. Adding a bunch more wires for cathodes might put me over the edge.
