Well I suck at photoshop. That program makes me want to punch a hole in my screen. Pics suck a hairy satchel but they'll have to do unless somebody wants to hook a brudder up with some Photoshop CS3 tutorials. They really need a lot of touch up.

Future upgrades are to include new 120/140mm fans all around. I still don't know which 140mm fans since the selection out there still sucks. Other than that I'll be picking up either some fast 2x2GB sticks or just swing for a nice 2x4GB kit to have 8GB. Plus I would like to upgrade my sound card to an Asus. Cable management will just have to wait until I have time.

Specs:
  • Core i7 2600k
  • Gigabyte P67A-UD7
  • Corsair Dominators 2x2GB
  • Asus GTX 580 Direct CU II
  • Creative X-FI Fagality Professional
  • Crucial C300 64GB @ 2R0
  • Samsung F3 1TB @ 2R0
  • Samsung F4 2TB
  • Corsair AX850W
  • Lian Li PC-V1020B
  • Thermalright Venomous X
  • Windows 7 Ultimate x64

Ya I love the case. I would paint the internals and clean the cables up more but I don't have the time and the case isn't windowed so I wouldn't see it anyways.

Ya that's what I ended up using to crop the photos. I was trying to crop and then fix the background and a little of the coloring. I hate that program and have no idea how my wife uses that garbage.

Dude GIMP, Paint.net, Photochop..... I just don't understand those darn programs. I mean they have so many tools and whatnot. I guess if I had time to sit and read guides and the help files I could figure it out.


I think it will look a lot better once I change a few things. Different fans will make a large difference I think. Plus when I get some different memory I can take that corsair fan out. Right now I have to use it since the modules get so hot on my kit. I'm thinking Scythe Gentle Typhoons for the rear 120mm and Venomous X. As for the 140's I don't know. The selection sucks for 140mm. I'll probably just splurge on some noiseblockers. I also need to get some tie down anchors for the mobo tray backside and matching SATA cables. Then I'll tidy the other cables up.

My only gripe with this case is the mobo cable management holes. With the position of my SATA ports I can't use the bottom hole for the VGA cables. I guess they'll have to stay like they are.

cables dont look that bad from the pics need one from the side view not in a angle :P

Oops forgot to wipe that spot down. :taunt: The pics are at an angle for a reason. :) The wiring is a mess between the mobo tray and HDD cage. I need to order some matching sata cables and fix the wiring up some. I have to order some wire saddles too. I just need to find out exactly what size screws I need.

There are no "anchors" on the tray for the zip ties. There are tons of screw holes though. Plus the saddles look sweet.

I've found 2in Black Duct Tape does wonders for organizing the cables between the backside of the mobo tray and the case side :D

Creative Fagality Pro ?? .... something new :blink:
