Insane Wire Management
I will be adding some more pictures soon to give a better idea of the wire management that went into this!
Please take into account that there are 5 case fans and 3 hard drives, adding up to 11 wires alone.
Also please post the score you gave along with your comment.
Thanks!

BTW, what is that 2 digit readout at the bottom of the MB for? I assume thats stock.
the display is stock on many boards now:
AC2005 POST Display
it can display ~50-75 codes that can be references in the motherboard manual, detailing exactly what stage the motherboard is at all times, including powering on (about 15 steps), powering off (~10 steps) and all other times
Basically if there's an error, you can tell immediately why and then determine what needs to be done, it's quite handy though I must say, this board is so great that I haven't even needed to reference it yet :)
though hey what did you do with the Toxic watercooling on that card!? lol
You got a 9ner
Great work and not all hanging out side the case like mine is at the moment LOL.
I haven't felt like bothering with the TOXIC cooler yet haha, I've always been content with air :)
maybe someday I'll add a WCing loop but we'll see
Overall good job. Post some OC specs and 3dmark scores please :)
I'll definitely be posting benchies in the near future, atm I've been busy with school and now I'm writing a review on the crucial lanfest so it may be a bit before I get to do much OCing
(most I've done is superpi 1M at 3.6 which can be seen here: forums.techpowerup.com/showpost.php?p=506745&postcount=1323)
LOL, only joking!
Thats a great rig! :)
So does it look black at times?
and DaMulta...you just...need some help...lol
and does what look black? or do I even want to know hah
and damulta ok lol, and no not really, maybe a little bit in the dark but you can still tell it's silver
I love the contemporary look if you haven't noticed :) too bad I'm using this nasty desk we have to use in our dorm rooms haha
I should've included my macbook pro in the setup pics :)
I fail to see the silver....
Did you mean you cut out the sidepanel to fit some acrylic or did you buy a new sidepanel for it?
Also seems kinda stock for the rest but nice cable management.
I made an account just to say DAMN!!! I really like your build. Lian li case, Abit motherboard with new P35 chipset. Awesome CM. Question for you actually though, just looking in your case, im about to do my next build, Im gonna be running the e4400 C2D obviously overclocked, hoping to hit 3.0 air with the M0 revision. Abit Ab9pro P965 chipset motherboard (i chose it for the hella sata and raid options) , 4GB Supertalent DDR 800 micron d9 chips soo i should be able to hit the FSB im lookin for. But the kicker is im gonna be using the ATI hd2900 PRO video card. Which is along the lines of 8800gtx size maybe a tad bigger. For size in your case, how much clearance is there for the video card before is becomes a problem with external expansion slots or internal 3.5 drive bays. I would worship you if you would actually break out a ruler and measure depth from card slot to the drive bays. AND, of course as soon as I get a case which is all I need, i will post the rig along with step by step progress photos.
and for sure I'll let you know exact clearance measurements as soon as I get back to school where my PC is tomorrow!
as for your system, I have a few comments to make, why do you feel that you need 4GB of ram? if nothing else the extra two dimms (unless you're going 2x2GB) are only going to limit you're CPU overclock, also that 2900Pro, while an amazing card and I would love one myself, is most certainly going to be bottlenecked by that CPU...I hate to say it but it really will be, my suggestion would be to go with one of the good 2GB DDR2 800 kits such as Ballistix that you know will OC well but are still cheap AR, then put the extra cash into a better CPU
see and vote in my case www.techpowerup.com/gallery/1034.html
bye ;)
BTW, that lanfest ram is very pretty.
sorry if i not express my self clear but i wana saw interior snaps its a great rig and i need to withdraw my vote, post it please
bye ;)
as soon as I get that in better pics will be up!
and btw, don't dis the 1900XTX, it's still a kickass card!!!

I'm pm you when I get it and pics up :D
and according to your system specs you already have a striker extreme???
what about a Gay Strip Club with a blue neon sign and Blue Lighting inside? :/
:P
But dude, if that's your thing, then rock on. lol :P :P
I'm all for a neon sign, tho.
Depends on what it says, also. lol
update, 2900Pro is getting here tomorrow :D
She is absolutely gorgeous, I've been meaning to say something. lol
Honestly.. any fool could understand why your face is one huge smile. :D
Also, where are the updated pics? ;)
pics are forthcoming :) I've been busy with school and finishing up the review on the Cucial lanfest ram, plus I have a crazy Cell Bio exam on Monday so as soon as that's over I'll have some extra time :D
Sorry to go o/t guys. Good luck on the review. and it's CRUCIAL btw. :P
Nive rig, well put together, nice mods, I gave you 9/10
nice job
I also like the colour combination of the lights used... it adds a mystery to it (i know i have a vivid imagination, but just for triggering it 9/10)
