Gotta love that PSU, flex-force ftw! 10/10

Btw, I wanna know, how's that power supply doing for you? I'm looking for a good PSU in the 600-800W and I'm actually looking at the 800W model right now, specs in my current sig. I'm having this blackscreen everytime I load a game up, but yeah.. :D

Stable and uber quiet... but this is a very low power system. 600W is probably overkill.

I sent you a PM.

You fail. There is a unused molex in plain sight on top of the fan infront of HDD cage.


jk. well not about the molex, but that is a damn good job of cable management.

I've been waiting for someone to point that out!!! LOL

That plug is for a fan controller that came with the case. It's mounted right near the Pwr/Reset buttons. I debated cutting the wire off but decided to just let it be. Good eye my friend, but don't think for a second that I didn't catch it!!

Dang, now I have to dig it out of there and hide it behind the HDD cage.

I will definitely be in touch with you guys when I get ready to do my next project....Should be by this August or September.....probably going with Phenom and ATI crossfire this round...But yes, I want to step up into the "BIG Leagues" of cables management and you guy's have simply blown me away with what you are able to accomplish.... :)

I did go buy a better camera, but that system has a new home now so... no better pics.

By the time it was done I had upgraded the CPU heatsink to a Enzotek, added a corsair memory cooler, swapped the standard side panel out with a windowed one, and added a couple of white cathode tubes to show everything off.

That computer is what finally got my fiance interested in system building.

What has the lighting to do with the state of the case. You are an idiot.
Try to get such a nice pc yourself.

I like how you made a nice hole for the 24 pin connector.
great stuff. Also 8 from me.

Just because mods are in plain view and easy to spot doesn't mean they aren't there buddy. Anybody can hack away at a computer and add 13 colorful fans... it takes time and patience to mod a case in such a way that you would swear it looks stock. That was the whole point of this particular case. The goal was to make it as clean and simple as possible without adding equipment or altering the originality in any extreme way. I actually had to almost completely disassemble the entire rig to get this end result.

And I know all you have to go by are these photos, but when it was done and shipped, it had a better HSF on both the CPU and GPU, RAM fans, a windowed side panel, and white cathodes to show it all off.
