Nice job of your 1st build. You get an 8 out of 10 from me. You were borderline 7, but I decided to round you up.

Cable managment is the only thing holding you down from a 9. Yes, your rig is nice and neat... but you have to accept that a pretty high bar has been set by other rigs on this site.

thanks! I like the silver look on the inside of the case but I think black would look good. If I were to do the inside black I think I would buy the other P182 and put my side panels and front door on it.

and last, where is your case mod?

She is pointing out that the trim does look odd shaped and bulky in ur photo. The second shot from farther away does look nicer, I agree with her point.

Its almost harder to take picts than the modding itself for me.

(nice job so far on the comp)

yeah, I couldnt get a good shot because I forgot to take that pic and the comp was already set up and I didnt feel like moving it around so I had to reach behind it and shoot blind, but it does look normal from the right distance. thanks for the vote.

edit: just realized who you were MK, what a compliment "nice job so far on the comp" coming from you, I've seen your mods, excellent work
