I would definitely get modular man... I had a seasonic x750 gold already available. The case is SMALL and I had to carefully organize even the few modular psu cables in order to get the side panel on easily.

Thanks! Unfortunately though hardhead mode is now enabled for me. I enjoy a challenge.

I don't see there being any airflow issues if I play my cards right. I'll let you know how it goes, but my computer won't be completed til a month from now.
 
Anyone know if the front intake fan on the Rosewill Line-M is easily replaceable? If I end up picking one up, I'm thinking of swapping it out for a non-LED one.
 
I fail to see what is so good about painting the inside of a case black. Just makes it harder to see. Might as well just leave it bare silver steel and put a silver chrome finish on it. I could sea a chrome pipe comming off the back and maybe put a flip top thing on it and have a button to make it ref up and blow all the air out like a motorcycle.

Why not just hang down a little disco ball inside the case.

Just kidding here.

Maybe you can just burn out the LED by over volting it or maybe just cut the circuit to the LED.

Why wouldn't it? Pop off plastic front and unscrew it. Install new fan. Pop front back on.

You may be able to just snip the LED wires, depending on the design of the fan.

Had to actually cut a part out of the backplate of the CM 212 evo so it wouldn't rest on a transistor.

So, should I remove or keep the hdd cage in place? Supposedly it aides with the cooling.
