To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
ABIT AS8-V
P4ht 3ghz @4.2 with TUNIQ Tower 120
3gigz of Kingston HyperX with OCZ XTC RAM cooler
ATI HD 3850 (AGP)
ASUS P1 PhysX card (pci)
Soundblaster Audigy 2
CORSAIR HX620 Modular PSU
2 Western Digital 250gig HDs (RAID 0)
2 Samsung DVD drives
All inside a AreoCool AreoEngine II

Mods:
Painted inside black.. cable management.. cut a top exhaust fan (80mm)added fan grill with mesh.. nothing too fancy

OK... some of the pix are older (before new cpu cooler). But you can get the piont. All ive really done to the case was paint, hide most of my cables and added a few upgrades like the new CPU Cooler and the ram cooler along with the top fan. I know the set-up is a bit old but this old ass agp is still in the game . I get atleast 60+ fps in all games i play and this board is great overclocker for my P4.

Temps-
CPU- idle 25c / load 36c
GPU- idle 30c / load 39-42c

Im scoring 11000+ in 3DMARK 05 and 8000+ in 06

So you guys let me know what you think. I know ive had this mod up for some tim but i recently changed a few things in hopes to make this beast last a few more years for the wife. I am in the process of making the extra cash for my next build this fall.. i will post that and hook you guys up with a work log.
