My System Specs

Default Moved into the Lancool
Just moved my computer into the Lancool K-62.
Some problems due to my older hardware [not long enough cables, mobo layout not to great for this case]
But all in all, very happy with the results.

Nice. Thinking about getting this case for my next build in the late summer or early fall. Can it fit a 5970? Hopefully by then it will be down in price to $400. Thinking about getting this or a corsair 800d, depending on how much room there is for large vid cards.

nice, I was impressed with the lancool K-62 when it came out.

Are your power supply cables too short to go through the back side of the case to make it look cleaner? Well I guess you have the big heatsink there.. and your connectors on the other side of it.. that would be a pretty long run.

The CPU cable is actually long enough and there is a tiny little hole at the top but it barely fits through. Will take some force and time to get it through. But it is possible. However, the mobo power cable is a no can do

Updated Pics. Gave up on getting the 8 pin through the tiny hole in the back.

So this is the best I could do.

Getting the 8 pin through that hole was hell. But once i got it through it was well worth it lol, thankfully corsair made sure teh cables were long enough.

Man, it's still really bugging me, any tips on how to get it through? Specific ways? Did you put it through before you put the mobo in? Gahhh
