Mods:
nothing really fancy, have been using this pc more than a year ( looking forward to upgrade soon ) didnt cost me alot of money to build this pc. just upgraded the case fans. thermaltake cpu cooler, zalman fatal1ty vga cooler and vantec case fans, i still need to buy a front intake fan, ( really quiet system )

thinking of buying cold cathode red lights to light up the front since there are small holes on the front.

very clean and very neat 8/10 from me. needs some lights, i know its a closed case but it would look cool coming from the holes on the side of the case. Try and do something with the case, its so bland. Nice work

Nice and clean. Nice job on the cables. 7/10 from me. Don't know who would give you a 1. Guy was probably horny and there wasn't a banana or cucumber in the house so he took his frustration out on you. Forgive him.
