Performed Mods:
Pretty lame actually. Modded the once closed sidepanel (Lazer cut and slapped with an acrylic window). Acrylic window is once again lazer cutted with a blow hole (no fan though. i use it as a breather hole.. airflow inside is good as it is) Customized lazer cut fangrills "Quake3". Simple internal paint job (sprayed black). Changed stock fans to Thermaltake 3000rpms. sum UV ccfl. Thermaltake fan modded to fit the Ultra 120 X. Lapped the Thermalright 120 Ultra X. 8800GT Bios Mod. Rams Cooled by XTC
Pretty lame compared to other guys rig. I just use it for gaming. I dont download much and I only play 2 games at a time. Might as well post it here for you too criticize at ;)
p.s. sorry for the lame camera also.

Post your commentCrysis 1280x1024 Default High Settings. 169.21 beta drivers.
Very nice! I like your taste into Quake III translating into those fan-grills. Good name too ;)
You score 8/10
I liked:
2x 8800 GT in SLI
The Thermalright cooler: It's the closest you can get to liquid cooling.
Awesome CPU OC on air. You could take it higher with this cooling, you live in a cold country.
I didn't like:
The hard-drive: Size and speed both bottleneck the system

He doesnt state what speed it is, so how do you know it 'bottlenecks' his system? ;)
I'm a sucker for cable management, and this case is so clean! Very nice overclock too, and SLI to boot.
I think you are way too down on yourself... This is a very nice system! Be proud of it.
8/10

He mentions it to be SATA (not SATA II, plus that's a single drive)...80 GB drives mostly don't have over 8 MB of write-cache. it does bottleneck his system. I cannot assume him to have a Raptor because there is no 80 GB Raptor, there's a 74 GB one.
by: btarunr;594990It cant be a bottleneck just for being a sata drive. It would only be a bottleneck if the drive itself performs at a higher bandwidth than sata supports. I dont know of any drives that transfer at 1.5 gigs per second :p

The hard drive can be a bottleneck, but SATA is not its descriminating feature.
Thanks guys.
@btarunr
Thanks dude. Yeah I do agree.. the loading times are bottlenecked with that disk compared to Raptors in RAID. Those are 7200rpms btw. FPS wont be bottlenecked though.. so I chose to stick with em. btw, I'm not from Iceland ;O) hehe.
@OD Church
Its a Thermalright 120 Ultra Extreme coupled with a 3000rpm fan. 35 on idle, 60+ on Stress Prime (load on 2 cores. EIST, C1E, and power profile always on).
@SRoode
Its pretty lame compared to other systems that I have been seing here. :) thanks for the compliment though.
btw,
This is what it was before:
Was too tired with all the bling (so unpro) and opted for a minimalist look instead.
^ This setup was running for several months. (sans the SLI). Changed it to the less bling look.

I see how much effort you put into it, I tried to do the same with my generic case but gave up lol. Its not necessarily neat, but the attention to detail is there with the fan grilles and such. Good choice of a case window too. One more thing, the black paintjob just makes the case look tenfold more expensive, at first look i thought it was an akasa!

Beautiful build Bjorn. Like SRoode, I'm a sucker for cable managment. I'm also a sucker for the Striker Extreme.

Way back.. months ago..
I play Guildwars too! IGN: Quirion Archer, Ertai Adept Wizard, Eron D Relentless..
Original Case look before modding:
810 Looks great man! nice and clean and good benchmark too. would have given you a 10 if you had better hard drives. I would recommend two of the 3Gbs 10,000 RPM raptors in raid 0. I garauntee you will see a nice perfomance increase with those.
are you overclocking at all?
