Notes

The top of the NZXT Phantom computer case had to be cut out to fit the 3x120mm radiator, the top USB/audio bracket also had to be trimmed a bit (none of the cuts is visible after attaching the top cover). Also had to have a bracket made to mount the radiator.

Forgot to mention, the gray material on the desk is actually floor mat purchased from Home Depot, they sell it by the foot. I originally purchased it to use as a large mouse pad and end up covering the entire desk with it as it added a nice grip for mounting things like the steering wheel as well as just protecting the finish on the desk. When I purchased it I intended on using the underside of the mat as it was soft and smooth but it created too much drag on the mouse so I flipped it over and even though there is ridges on the top part it actually worked great with the mouse.

The desk was stolen from a yard sale, and by stolen I mean I got it for $30 or $40, can't remember it has been a few years. I did a little modding to the keyboard tray by making it bigger and spacing it so it would be a little lower. I also cut out a board into a triangle shape and mounted it in the corner of the desk to hold my steering wheel setup. Thanks for your comments.
