:D Today i'll be buying a sound card... I've spoken to a few people about a clear side panel.. and hopefully they'll be able to order me one. After that maybe some cathodes and another chipset cooler on my northbridge?

That thang is t3h shizzlezzzz. You wanna know why I think so??



Painful, isn't it?? P.O.S!! :p I need new PSU, new CPU cooler, new case, more ram, new motherboard (I'm looking at you tigger :D). The list goes on...

AND LOOK AT THAT QUALITY CABLE MANAGEMENT I GOT GOING ON RIGHT THERE! ROFL!

Can anyone spot my dodgy sellotape wiring mentioned in my specs in this picture?

Dude, absolutely righteous – I opened two IE windows and looked at the before and after, you gotta be proud of that baby, and I’m sure she’s running cooler and hopefully… quieter.

side window, blowholes, cold cathodes, 120mm led fans, get rid of the stock cpu cooler, cable management, remove usb 2.0 (unless you use it regularly ;) ), fan controller?, led display?

EDIT: Holy mother of god why did i think you hadnt done any modding yet :p

EDIT: I love the colour - it suits your mobo
my mobo is like yours! *tear*
