Performed Mods:
Painted interior and back I/O panel semi-flat black, stealthed the front bezel gunmetal grey (of sorts), suspended hard drive mod to reduce vibration, added scythe ninja to cpu, accelero S1 to 8800GT and kama bay to improve cooling, cut several holes in mobo tray to do some massive wire management, added two strips of white led's to illuminate the work. -- Replaced the original window with a new, less old and scratched one, but thats more of a maintenance thing than a mod.
Still a super silent rig, runs fast as ever, stable as can be. The only future changes I could imagine for now is the migration to a 45nm quad unless I wait for nahelem for a total overhaul, and upping the ram since prices are rock bottom.

Thanks for the vote!
This PC is meant to be silent :D
U from SPCR? 9/10, a very desirable setup to have, ample power and cool and silent. Nice job.
And thanks for noticing the true nature of the rig. =]

On a side note TPU is being very cruel with voting.... oh well. I guess its trendy to vote low now (ignoring that trend)
So yeah rate my one! www.techpowerup.com/gallery/1426.html and do you think my PC would be silent? Btw guys im on my backup PC atm, and not the SOLO. The SOLO is at my flats, I'm at my apartment using the backup.
