If it gets the work done, "form follows function" is the best phrase for this computer..
Next time, take more photos of the inside, and not the outside, I pass this rating as I do not know if there is crappy cable management.
What motherboard?
Flat black perfect colour for a torrent rig...needs skull and crossbones....nice 24/7 d\l rig

To win back some scores, fufill the following criteria
-Full view of interior, without panels and lighting, however not being so bright that nothing can be seen.
-Proper Lighting; use an external source of lighting with the bling off and show us how good you are at cable management
-Full view from rear, 45*, from front 45* (Can be similar)
I don't know why his camera covered all the cable management... If you show us a picture depicting the cable management and the full view of the whole system(looks pretty bad from what I can tell), Then I shall rate it.
Do some photography lessons because the photos that you took aren't in good angles that depict the good and the bad.
Turn off all the bling and use an external source of lighting to take the photos... the cold cathode tube hides almost everything from view.
Yes your external pictures were good but many people want to know how it looks inside.
www.techpowerup.com/gallery/details.php?id=575 Take the picture of the interior like this.
I know very good hard ware doesnt mean anything seeing as this is a CASE MOD GALLERY not a hard ware gallery but thats not why I said what I said. There is nothing unique about this case its very plain with pore lighting and cable management YET some people gave it a 6-7.
So wtf are you talking about Kenny, You completely misunderstood what I’m saying I never knocked this case for pore hard ware Im basically knocking the people that gave it a 6 or a 7, I have seen way nicer cases get 5 and 6 yet people gave this a 6 to 7 lol RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
love it sounds like sumit id say if i had the power!!
on the case i like the colour but if it was me id try mayeb a stealth drive idea???? make it look a bit more tidy and some lighting inside the case and as always try and hide those cables!!
good start 5/10
but what I like about this case is the creativity. Not many ppl take the time to redo their case as like this above.
I give an 8/10
I love bondo.....lol
