-yells- VIVA LA INTEL!!! -throws a brick through a car window-

hahaha! Fanboyism strikes! Show us this when you go Phenom II ;)

johnnyfiive

lol! I will have much better benchmarks once I get the Phenom II. I have an actual FUND just for the Phenom II. I'm ready to buy it ASAP. No denying, the GTX260 is BADASS. Ditched my two 3870's for it, well worth the upgrade.

I'm not into the flashy modding of stuff. I wish they had a gallery for a Case Gallery and not only case modification gallery. People's scores get dinged for having nice, simple, fully functional mods that don't get noticed. Either way, thanks for the 4, its better than a 0. If only you can see how limited the case was initially. I dremeled the crap out of it to make the cable management what it is now. Did you see the wiring picture? Look close, look how many holes/sections I dremeled, haha.

Well, got some new plans. I'm going to get this case after I get a Phenom II.

I want something with tons of room for air flow and future upgrades. Either it be additional hard drives or water cooling, this case is perfect. I've got a nice plan going.
