Nice Rig,, I would also like to see better photos, but the over all look is eye catchingly Sharp. This is the type of Rig I like to see posted when I do my daily visits in the gallery. simple, clean, creative & sharp looking.

Id say maybe a blue or dark purple cathode would look pretty sweet. I always wanted to re-sleeve my psu and have the all the connection tips chrome plated but not with real metal more like that paint that's used for kids toys. This would complete and black and chrome color scheme which I personally think looks really awesome. I was thinking about just painted my tips I just need to locate the paint and hope it turns out well. If it does work I would then paint the fan blades the same.

I think maybe this paint..


I dont think they even sell "true" purple cathodes let alone dark purple ones, i have some purple ones in my pc but they are very watered down if you understand what im saying, they are almost white with a violet touch to them, but if you have a link to some purple cathodes please send it my way!

Maybe your right these are the darkest cathodes I could find. I bet you could darken the cathode lenses to dissipate the light though.

I agree with crtecha. With the right lighting and photographer, your PC could be MDPC worthy. It is a very nicely done case/build.

Beautiful job. You took great pictures too with the proper amount of lighting and a good camera, but I hate the camera angles. I really wish you had a straight on side shot so that we really could see that empty space and how clean you kept it.

Holding off on voting.

Thank you!

That is amazing. I voted 9/10 simply because I never vote top score; you have to always reserve that for the possibility of something better, right? Still, you have an amazing computer there.
