Dark Blade by G69T

What on earth is left to say about this mod? It's been covered by mainstream news outlets around the world, attracted links from all around the technology and enthusiast community, and it is the longest ever thread on the bit-tech Project Logs forum, currently standing at 93 pages and over 1800 posts.

The massive project was actually started in November 2004, and its updates have thrilled us through to the end of 2006, when it was finally completed. G69T, hailing from Italy, put his engineering and CNC skills to use to create what has to be one of the most stunning pieces of engineering artwork ever created.

Along with WMD, Dark Blade is one of the most complicated scratch-built mods in the competition, and really represents one of the 'new wave' of case mods - those which bare little resemblance to a traditional enclosure and are completely hand-made from raw materials.

Man, just check out the vortex watercooling. It's insanely pimp.
