Performed Mods:

Full case tear down and repaint. All dremel work done myself. Custom laser etched plexi-glass from Hyperkore. Stealthed drive bays for visual effect. Needed to remove all HD coolers and Vantec VGA cooler due to space restrictions upon adding 1950 PRO replacing X 850 XT PE. Recently removed all front intake fans to flip HD's around for cleaner look. This system will not be upgraded anymore and will go to my kids once I decide on what I want for a new PCI-e rig. Waiting on AMD to see what they have in store. :)

Eat, sleep, game!

Very nice, I love the Venom pic (hes my fav Marvel character btw) Just one thing, get rid of that beige FDD, replace it with a silver one and you will be sorted :)

i like the venom, but the cablemanagement is crap, no offense.

Vinc3nt_Steele

Yup, the cable management is crap. :) That's the main reason I'll be going for a CM-832 shortly. I'll also be able to go from the 80mm fans to 120mm one's giving me some additional silence. Too bad my motherboard doesn't like 4 Gigs of RAM since I have 2 more Gigs of the EL sitting on a shelf. Guess I'll put it in my kids system.

Can I get that Venom avatar /pic for my mouse pad :P?

I think you have done great, but I would still recomend you to buy a new case, that thing looks kind of overloaded :P

Served 5k and counting ...

I like it, 9/10 from me. You lost the extra 1 due to cable management.
