makes me so happy i ordered my 800d!

i know its expensive compared to the haf, but the cost and trouble of finding decent powder coating in ireland is just bull****.

marco_polo

Kudos. That is some seriously tidy work dude.

uberpixie

Nice tidy job on the cables mate!

youcancallmeal

Excellent work especially considering its your first build!
My first build was a complete mess with absolutely no cable management, I just jammed everything into the case and booted it up

As for the black interior i was waiting for parts to arrive and i got itchy fingers.

GF bought me the HAF 932 and PSU for christmas
