I will post full details of it when its up and running with price etc

Most of it arrived to day bar memory, hardrive and cooling which all should arrive in the next couple of days

Clockd 0Ne laughing at me with regard to box size of the case, failed to say it was huge (box not case, box not overly large)

Ran into one two issues so far

PSU is a hyper modular type R

- Firstly the p180 has the PSU bay at the bottom with a  huge 120mm fan onto, The problem is that the modular cables stick out a bit due to the connectors, so I had to take out the fan and mounting and just put the fan on the other side of the middle plate.
So issue solved but still was an issue

- Second is that the 4 pin 12v socket is at the top of the mobo and so top of the case and the cable is not long enough - Had to buy an extension cable

The case looks rather sexy... Tempting to sell the shuttle and get a new mobo and case with the funds from the Shuttle... Starting to need more storage, how much was the case?

What version P180 is it as well?

This one?:
