Cut holes in rear support panel and MB tray for cable managment. Cut fingers on aforementioned holes while applying edge molding which is supposed to prevent the cutting of fingers... damnit!
Low specs and stock coolers are because this rig was built for my father primarily as non-graphics intense home office type of system. The CPU, memory, hard drive, and DVD drive were all parts I had left over from other builds so all this really cost me was a MB, case, power supply, and video card. He doesn't play games, but he may indulge in the occasional Star Trek themed software from time to time so I at least wanted the system to be able to handle games with mid-range graphics settings. Before I ship it off to him I decided to put a couple of hours into cable managment to see if I can get one up on TKPenalty and SladeSurfer.

Santa sucks!
Don't even say it Slade... that IS THE FLASH!!! LOL
I'm guessing that was probably to knock it down in the overall standing order... I like to give people the benefit of the doubt ;-)
Thanks for the 9 BTW!
I have (2) Lians and i posted theme here and you have one or more and you of kind piss the Lian family with that cooler
but other spex are OK
When will someone make a...
TKEnergySladePenaltySurferFX Challenge?
hahahahahaha lol you're good
Anyway, join the club :p
Read the description of what this computer is built for before you go ranting about doing the Lian-Li family injustice. The stock heatsink/fan is perfectly fine for this computer's purpose, but I tell you what... I'll post a screenshot with Everest, Stability Test, AI Tuner, and CPU-Z just for you.
To my own amazement this damn thing is running at about 40C (47C @ cores) under stress load and only 28C at idle. I'd say the stock Intel cooler is doing quite well with a +12.5% overclock.
Speed stepping is enabled on the CPU. My father will almost NEVER hit max CPU load on this system, much less sustain it, so shipping it to him as it sits is the plan.
This is posted here in the gallery for the sole purpose of showing off the cable managment.
*buys an Ultra X3 600W*
Unfortuneately i don't have the money for that kind of stuff lol... T________T
Damn someone should have told me the P5K-E came with that kind of SATA connector T_T
You just can't see it!! Ha... *eyepoke*
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
I will beat up whoever gave you the one with my old Antec 900. This is the reason that everyone who votes should also leave a comment. TPU please make this mandatory!!
I sent you a PM.
jk. well not about the molex, but that is a damn good job of cable management.
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.
Sweet job man!
I left a comment on your case.
TK, the only "1" rating came less than 10 mins after this was posted in the gallery.
Hello. Nice pc. If some bright photos 10/10!
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.
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.
you have a nice rig there energy 6/10 from me
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.
sorry if you dont like my honesty in saying that you have an "excellent" rig
I agree that higher votes should be reserved for rigs with more work than this one, my previous post was not intended to discredit your vote, it was only meant to counter the comment that went with the vote.
Very simple
