I've been following this project for a while now and took the plunge and backed the project a few days ago. I am also really excited about the idea of a cell booster to get some more ventilation. I did have a thought about making the cell booster more in line with the design of the case.


So this will be a little tough to explain, but the idea is:


-Take the current front panel and make vents for the air to escape in what would be an unseen area( marked in blue)

-Have the current vents(marked in green) milled so that the shape of the fins is there, but leave material in the back so air cannot go back inside the case.

-Create a mounting plate(marked in purple) that both supports the fans and blocks air from going back in the case, so the fans are exhausting the air between the inside of the case and out via this front panel.


I feel like this could be the best of both worlds, maintaining the beautiful aesthetic of this case and allowing better thermals. Let me know what you think and if my explanation is clear.  Sorry for the really sloppy drawing, I just did it on my phone so I could get the idea out there and (fingers crossed) something like this makes it into production.
