Love the work you've done with flush-mounting that mesh. And while hex mesh isn't necessarily the quietest (at least not if you force a lot of air through it - my GF's Corsair C400's top vent proves that! Though your mesh is far more open than that design.) it looks damn good. The grey anodization also looks great. Any plans for painting the mesh? Personally, I think it looks a bit unfinished in its "raw" color; I would probably prefer it in a darker shade than the main body (that would also make the contrast to the dark internals of the PC behind the mesh less striking). Perhaps not pure black, but a dark grey?I have to ask, though: how did you cut your panels? Do you do it yourself, or buy them from somewhere? And what (roughly) is your total budget for a case like this?
