With both side panels done and the drive mounting problem solved, it was time to focus my attention on the top of the case.

Biomech 550 case by Wolverine The Radiator

First, I mounted six 120mm fans on the radiator - a skull was also added to complete the look.

Now I needed to make a large hole in the top of the case to fit the radiator into the case. Armed with masking tape, a pen and a hacksaw I got to work.

Here's the result, and the fan assembly mounted into place.

With the hole cut and the awesome six fan radiator setup in place, it was time to give it a biomech makeover.

When I looked at the radiator, I realised that it would take a massive amount of putty to make the radiator fit in with the rest of the case theme. Something had to be done to reduce the putty use that was already becoming incredibly ridiculous. I used a bunch of old rolled up newspapers and some masking tape to make the slopes on which to apply putty. This worked just fine, as the putty gets really hard when it sets.
