Specs:
See profile

Mods:
The chipset fan died, so I cut the old fan out and put in a 40mm 8k rpm fan.

Short cables on the power supply really limit what I can do with the cable management in some places. It's nothing special overall.

I have to agree with zero.. what wrong? lol

Its an average computer.

Having exorbitantly high standards for hiding cables doesn't mean your airflow is infinitely better ;)

Not bad. It's pretty average, but nice. Shame on Epox for putting the power connector there, that's a terrible place for it. lol.

To improve, I'd say try your best to do something about the wires. Even just sleeving them would probably go a long way.

Gets a "Good" from me. 5/10. Higher with some wiring work.

Not too shabby for what you're runnin, I do agree with Wile E's comments. Sleeving those wires would help, and overall, it looks nice Wazzle. I'll give ya 6/10. If you can get your hands on a Corsair, they come with all sorts of long cables that can help with routing and hiding, but I think a lot of companies are taking that strategy, or at least should be now-a-days. You did a good job of keeping things simple for sure!

I have the 2.1 version of your speakers, I love em! I don't use them as much since they get loud easily, I resort to my Magnum Headset for loudness, but these logitech speakers are still great!

And LoL at everyone flaming Kenny, at least he was honest in his opinions, he just didn't support them with explanation...doh! I thought Zero Cool's was the funniest, it almost seemed as if he got personally offended by Kenny's comments that were directed at Wazzle's PC, is there a little tension there or what?! rofl!

Anyway, yeah I have to agree with everyone but Kenny, nice average rig man.
