Framing the base !!!
measured up the aluminum fram around the plexi bottom
PS fan cutout
MB board tray cut out
resizing the ice base

My favorite part of the build ecting and illuminating The Sapphire Logo.
laying everything out for full assembly
the first side panel
added the sdd and the front logo
Rad & fans
added the Blue ray & PS + side panels
Cutout for the upper case fan to blow on the GPU
Super tight fit for water cooling and wires
cleaned up the wiring
Dropping the MB onto the base.
