Default Mountain Mods Cases

Any of you guy's using one of those? I was looking at them today and they seem to have plenty of room to get whatever you want inside... even a lot of WC'ing equipment if need be. If anyone has one how do you like it?

I saw some pics in their image gallery but none really seemed to get a real good look at what was inside.

Yah, they are really nice cases Jeffro, nice. But they are a bit pricy for me personally. You have tons of options on how you wanna setup watercooling and they look cool as heck. I don't think anyone here is currently running a cube.

I had a duality for a while. The new Ascension series looks very nice. I would like to try one with a horizontal mb tray this time though.

Default extended U2 UFO case

I was sent this case with the Asus R3E MB about a week before the MB came out..Seems my Asus kin want pics ...I had a IOH heat issue with the first MB and sent it back...I took the MB apart and still couldn't get away from the 85c range on the IOH so I am building this with the new one...

This is the plain brushed alum. extended U2-UFO MM case....( I would like it in navy Blue)
Most of our top notch team need no case but my neices Husband (the Asus Guy) wanted this after the summit and I am a hardware Junkie...
I slapped together a 24 x 18 wood box with wheels for this instead of using casters that came with the case..My Bulldog wasn't really sure as he watched this for 3 days...LOL
Here was the start:



This is the first Horizontal MB I have ever used..

MM makes a really great case for your gamer or emailer...
In this I used:
Asus Rampage III Extreme
980X retail
Asus EAH5870
SS ST-1500 PSU
Corsair Dom. 1866 7-8-7-20 ram
2 x WD V 600 Raptors
3 coolermaster 110 cfm rad fans
3 Thermalright 2000 silent fans
3 Antec 2000 Back fans
Feser 360 X-Changer rad and shrouds
Alphacool AP-1510 adjustable pump
2 x samsung DVD WR
Koolance CPU-360 Block
Alphacool Repack reservoir


The back:
One really great thing with MM is room to spare and also there is a art about there cases....
The new R3E has no IOH heat issue...



This case came with all acrylic sides...Even my Mom helped pitch in to finish this on mothers day...

The downside if any is the many screws per side...
The upside is with all sides attached I have cool running....
