I've been following that thing for a while now, it's just a dazzling design.
Simply amazing.

It's an amazing piece of work. I can burn it to a DVD and send it to you if you wish. ;)

Heh, I was thinking the same thing. Allthough I'd bet money that there is ZERO airflow through that case. It's a "wire management" nightmare.

Yes, it's BEAUTIFUL and probably cost more to make than I make in a month, but it's fairly useless in real life.

Its just someone with too much time on their hands, and too much money in their wallet.

And the guy who spends $200 on a Xaser is spending wisely? Nah. This is possibly the best case mod ever.

You don't need great airflow with watercooling ;).

it's neat looking, but way too many wires... i think that's why I'll never go with water cooling. all the tubes really muck up the case.

That's an excessive amount of tubes, added for looks. Besides, you can't see the tubes when you close the case up. Unless you have a clear side panel.

Here is a link with the whole story behind orac. I have modded a few computers and have viewed thousands, but this particular one, the orac3 exceeds anything I could ever imagine.

The link will pull up a page with choices to 21 others with hundreds of pics. It is well worth the look.

Enjoy..Orac 3
