Well guys gotta project approved a couple days ago for a P5. Yes I know doing a P5 is like beating a dead horse there are so many out there but I think I have a fairly unique idea for this. So far all I have is the sketchup plan. I will be using the RGB fittings again this time for a proper project. RGB is LIFE!!! hee hee well at least in 2017. Now Im a complete noob using sketchup so be ez on my design lol. Its just rough. In the middle is where I will be putting the prob 8 led controllers that will be controlling not only the fittings but all the strips to light the RGB effects as well.

Looks like a nice layout.
Will be interesting to see if there is room for 4 side by side 120 rads with out drilling extra holes.Blue Dragon CM690 II an i7 - 960 x58 build

Looks like those bends are do able with out the need for adaptors to me.
However it will depend on the brand of rad you choose.Blue Dragon CM690 II an i7 - 960 x58 build

Great mock up.
I think the idea of 4 separate 120mm rads is interesting but I am concerned about those rads. They may not fit as intended and you will either have to drill holes in the case or the rads to get them on. 4 x 120 rads do not equal necessarily equal 1 x 480. You have to factor in the extra material used (by the manufacture) to close off each rad and multiply that by 2 for each abutment. (6 in total). Depending on how the rads are sized (actual not estimated) this could be well past 480mm to fit the channels already there. and by chance if you have to and can move the holes on the rad. having the right size drill bit and type to bore a hole without compromising structural integrity will be key and possibly a threading machine to thread those holes. (machine screws are not really great at creating their own threads when screwed.
By no means am I trying to be "that guy" I really like the proposition. I really hope it can work too without or by only drilling holes in the chassis. Best of Luck.

Well guys its started. Huge thanks to TT again for the goodies to build with. Always wanted to do a P5. Going to be doing two projects with this case. first one will be more of a "PC" looking mod next one will be......something I have never done and wont be so "PC" looking hehe. Photos of some of the hardware will be goin into the project.
