have a best tower here but i dont wanna run it like without a side cover

so i guess i gotta cut it then

any tips?

Familiarize yuhself with a dremel/jigsaw.

I have two cases to mod myself but i have to get the tool first.

Should be pretty simple to do once u know how to use the tool and measure/cut properly.

I hear plexi expensive but you can use glass instead.

Some case manufacturers offer a windowed side panel for their cases so u can check with them if u want a readymade option.

mines dont allow me to go windowed i gotta cut it

cuttings the easy part and getting plexi but how to stick it to the side

Try some good double sided tape, that's what I'm planning to use...how much you got a piece of plexi for btw?

bf3 crashing alot since i updated to amd catalyst 11.11 driver.. anyone have that problem??? it keeps saying display driver crashed... not all the time though

Yeh had a problem 11.11 myslf when I was installing my 6870, got a lot of crashes so I rolled back to 11.9, it working excellent. That update doesn't have anything of importance anyway.

Mounting tape (good brand) or clear epoxy resin.

Then you can use clear or coloured silicone to sealed the gap between the clear panel and the metal. Once yuh not in a hurry to cut and mod, the finished product should look good.

When my cases come i gonna take meh time and do them. May opt for metal mesh instead of plexi/glass depending on how d entire system looks when i finished installing.

If ya gonna spend that coin on a case I'd suggest the Thermal take level 10gt... I find that case too boxy, not worth that $$ imo

Looking pretty...but seems like a recipe for some monotonous gameplay

Could be, but it's made by platinum games who made Bayonetta and vanquish, two extremely good games. So they know their action games.

Still not my cup of tea though, most looking forward to kingdoms of amalur reckoning next year, hopefully I should be done with Skyrim by then, unless an expansion pack is released.

Had Vanquish, was pretty good at 1st but it get real repetitive I fine. Well if is them making it I know the action will be good & since is a Kojima flick it should have a decent story.
