Eye of the Storm, continued…
With the right side panel removed we get our first look at the side that hides all the cables and wires. A large access area has been given right where the back side of the CPU is located. This gives you plenty of access to replace your current CPU cooler with a new one or liquid cooling setup.
With the cooling fans on the other side of the HD cages this is where you will have to install your drives and run you cabling. Plenty of space has been giving on this side of the case you run and hide all the cables you could possibly have.
The hard drive cage is fully modular and will the removal of a few screws and moving around a bracket or two you can design your own custom setup.
Here you can see that I removed the top rack and the two slide rails that hold it in place.
Quickly you can flip the rack to the front or the other side if you like.
No need to remove the attached fan as the drive rack mounts far enough back into the case that the drive bay covers go right back into place.
Cool looking case!
did you modify the case after creating this article? add anything cool or whatever? let me know josephjgoff@gmail.com i would like to feature your work in a magazine article
Joe, I did not mod this case. I think I still have it in the box after the review :-) I have modded a lot more cases since this article.
I still have this case after 10 years, has gone through 3 Mobo changes and upgrades to the components, recently am interested in RGB lighting and would like to MOD The side Panels…can realy find anything online since this case is sooo old compared to new cases, but i like this case and see no reason to upgrade the CASE…so instaed I would like to MOD it, espeacially the side pannels, still looking online for someone who sells modded side pannels for the SGC-5000W-KWN1 Full Tower PC Case.
