I would appreciate the vote and comments...
ANY VOTES ?...................
It looks like you have a heap of gear in there, so i take it you can't hide any more of your cables (its the next thing I need to do to mine).
If you can't the only suggestion I have is to consider sleeving them, apart from that it looks great, well done :)
like you cable management you have a lot of components so it is hard to make them dissapear.
vote on mine will ya

Needs cabling work, case might be a bit of a dead end, maybe consider upgrading to something a bit bigger.
Considering what is stuffed in there, the wiring isn't bad, just not good.
tks for the vote in my case.
bye if u need help im here ;)
thanks for the vote and the help offered.
btw the cables crossing are a necessary proble (snif) and I know they don't look very nice... but I show u the pc as it is, as I use it.... they are a problem...
As for the comment "i dont vote in another time because i wana see more pics", I believe you are not entirely right about not waiting to see more pictures, cause i'd rather give anyone a 9 after seeing more of the inside than give them an 8 now...
if u see my point!!
thank again,
ron
Ex: u came here post 3 snaps and specifie all case and built that u do, i can give u 10 if u explain all process but if came here with 3 snaps and 3 lines of specification i dont vote i wait and i saw all the time if u add a modification and i and others menbers post too " please more snaps" or " can u post the specs about this please"
when i give u my vote i saw many thing like overclock, mobo and HD that u use PSU, memory etc so with my analist conception i understand that u are a person who understand many things about it so i give 9 for the inteligence too, many people post here and dont know to overclock a CPU, right?
I hope that i can explain what kind of method i use to vote
tks again bye if need help im here

thanks for comments
Great minimalist design. Not too flashy at the same time not too drab. Good OC (im guessing a 400 * 9) on a quad. Nice mobo. Nice placement of the 6 inchers. Nice GTX. Great OC with the GEILs (running at cas5 I pressume.. youve got the silver sink version. I'll clap my hands if those are running at 4-4-4-12 @ 900 ^^). Nice case. Nice addition of the Ageia card.
The left over 1 is for:
More OC! You can go 4ghz+ with that mobo ^^. A tad little more Cable management (those wires going over the GTX can crawl under the card.. right in the middle of the slot panel and the slot. Get a double sided tape then stick the CCFL pcb box somewhere and not leave it hanging.
I need to post new pictures but If I rearrange the system there is no point now!
I know... cables... I could do better and I am thinking about redoing the whole thing....
Thank you for vote and comment!
