I've been building and modifying this computer for a while. It's not much of a mod, but it does perform quite well in gaming and programs.

Will do. The cables are hard to manage because of all the hardware, but I'll do my best :)

It sounds a lot better than it looks. I give a 5/10 pending more pics. Nice paint job, I'd love to see the LED feet, and you might do well to scoot that res over a bit so the tubing gets more straight flow from your cpu. If need be, shorten up the WC lines to make it a bit sharper. Also, red coolant would look a bit better, and complement the setup nicely. It is kinda odd to see a red painted case in an intel/nvidia box though. The light blue just looks out of place.

More pics, some in the dark, side panel on, front bays, good stuff.

wow these Viper cases are popping up like genital warts. o_O

Anywho... you should really work on those cables. With such hardware that Quality you should present them like an exotic sports car. You could always cut holes into your motherboard tray to help rout your wires or feed them behind your motherboard.

I bet that spoiler really cuts down on wind drag too

Did someone attack the insides with a weedeater?

Yeah, a Honda 4 stroke! How did you know?!?!?!

I'll manage some of the cables tonight. I have lots of cable ties so I'll see what I can do.

EDIT: I've changed the blue Gigabyte fan on the CPU for the 80mm red fan that was at the front of the case. I replaced the now empty spot on the front of the case with a 120MM red UV CoolerMaster fan. I've also rerouted most of the small annoying cables around the back of the drive cages. Some cables simply could not be routed, but it does look a whole lot better, don't you agree? Feel free to change your votes if you'd like. A last thing I did was paint the Gigabyte Liquid Cooling Kit radiator matte black, instead of the stock blue, so that it would go with the case better.

Future modifications include: Red cooling liquid instead of the stock blue, and a red LED for the resovoir (will need some soldering work).

Nice rig!

IMO, cable management on these so called "gaming cases" are hard.. the designer of these cases are obviously oblivious about this growing trend. Someone whould slap them hard in the face

So, I'm considering getting a Lian-Li monolith-like case to put all of this stuff in. What do you guys think?
