To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
Athlon 64 3700+, Thermaltake Golden Orb II, 768Mb DDR2700, MSI K8N Neo2-FX, Samsung 250Gb IDE, Maxtor 80Gb IDE, NEC DVD Burner, ATI Radeon x700 AGP, Hauppage TV Tuner, Firewire card, 2nd network card, WinXP Pro OCZ Modstream 520w Powersupply, Thermaltake Armour case. Relisys 19" CRT monitor, Saitek Gamer's Keyboard, Saitek Cyborg EVO joystick.

Mods:
Replaced both non-LED 90mm fans with NorthQ 90mm LED fans. Added cooldrive 4 fan controller, 2 Akasa UV cold cathodes and UV IDE cable for HDDs.

I need to tidy up the wiring a bit more, and hope to replace the RAM soon with 2Gb OCZ Gold GX XTC in the near future. Also going to replace the 80Gb drive, and Spray the front of the DVD burner black. Ive literally built this a piece at a time, from an older PC, so its taken a while.

Just air cooling from the Thermaltake case, but have a Thermaltake Golden Orb II on the CPU, it sits about 45 under load, ie my son gaming for 4 - 5 hours at a time, so im happy with it, the chipset stays about 25 - 30. What looks like piping is actually the shielded cables on the OCZ power supply - here s a video review of ithttp://www.3dgameman.com/content/view/193/43/

Until August, this was a Athlon 220+, so there wasnt much point in buying a higher powered card. I ll get something faster at some stage, but for what im running - Half-Life2, counter-strike, Quake 4, etc., it does the job at hand quiet well.

No, i dont think i ll put in the bigger fan. Ive plenty of cooling at the moment, and also i like to have a balance between cooling and noise levels, as this machine is in the living room.

I like the case, and the overall look is good too. imo 8\10. i notice some folk have been unduely stingy though so I gave it a 10 to help make up for that ;)

Thank you very much. I noticed someone gave me a 1/10 for some strange reason. Id love to hear the logic behind this, as it makes no sense to me.
