Next Year PC Case Design Help! please :)

[mayro]

The Picture with this is my 3ds max repersentation of my next years btx computer. The whole thing will be made out of acrylic and ofcorse this isnt the finilized peace or the "eye grabbing" pices to display.

This is just to see if the layout is funtional for overclocking and if the fans that i got set up in their would probably be sufficant for cooling. Ive got everything that i could think that would get hot away from the cpu "power, harddrivers".

Does this look feesable?

Check this. Help?

The 2 fans by the cpu where 2 fans that i was going to mount to try and get heat away from the cpu by pushing it to the upper and side fan. The fan in the front wouldnt really be into the cdroms but i did that scetch really quick. I hadent thought about useing 120m fans though, thanks

:cheers: Pretty neat, except where the Power supply is... I like it the good ol' on the back. Besides where you've placed the PSU, it's going to make your AC plug stick up outward.

Yea I was wondering about the psu myself. Aside from that, I can't see how this is any different from atx. Just wondering, do you sell cases or something?

That isn't BTX but standard ATX.

No, i dont sell cases although if i get good at this i might consider it. Im at fault for lack of knolage on this and would like to thank asus for pointing it out for me. hehe.

I was under the impression that for a pc to have pci express that it had to be a BTX motherboard and i rememberd back in the day "6 months ago" when intel was talking about BTX they always followed it up with the pci express which drilled that into my brain.

Its nice to see Intel wont win the battle and that ATX is here for atleast a little whyll longer. Thanks guys....

Oh ya, im thinking about redoing the case to incorperate some cooling ideas that people have pmed me with along with createing the space needed for *gulp* water cooling.
