I didn't like the original Silver/Black color, so I sprayed it black. I stuck my Sapphire badge on the front too. :) Slight wire management, will get rounded IDE cables and sleeving...
I FOLDED THAT IDE CABLE, I WILL REPLACE PICS SOON!
This computer was given to me from my grandpa when he got a new one. I am 15 and don't have a job, but I've managed to put over $150+ worth of parts in it so far...Pictures were taken with phone.

Not enough images unfortuneately... I can't see anything of the inside of the PC so I won't bother voting. AGE IS NOT AN EXCUSE. I'm 15 too...Hmm a fairly decent job with what you have.. I'd recommend folding that IDE cable. Seeing how you cant really do much I'll be generous with your score. 7/10 :)
Fix that IDE cable (fold it and use a coloured tape to give it a quality look as well as to make it easier to hide, or justs buy the rounded ones you say you'll buy). Other than that, not bad at all... you even OCed a bit....nice... 7/10! keep it up...

I think it's great for a 15 year old to take this on as a hobby, so a "great" machine deserves a 6 (between good and excellent). If you clean it up, I'll up the score to a 7 or 8.
Have fun with it, and take your time with it!
