Performed Mods:
Added a on/off switch for the cathode to where the water tubing would normally go. Just did some basic cable management.
This was my first computer build back in August. Took me till January to finally do some cable management. Please let me know what you think and offer some pointers, or just laugh at my system's paltry video card. :)

Edit..... I have to readjust the size of my images so the pics won't be there yet. :(
Until then, the images are available at my worklog.
Edit.... The pics are finally up.
Lol the speaker is located nicely^^
But cable management... I dunno. Still too messy. And dusty :P

I thought this forum was for "case mods", not the latest hardware!
by: TheCrowOkay fine maybe he doesn't need a new video card. but an older video card is still going to bring down his score. The 7800gt is crap by todays standards.

by: BrooksyXHow's it gonna bring down his score? This part is for "case mods" not "hardware".

Does anyone know if I can get an pin extension cable? The cable I have that extends from the PSU to the mobo has absolutely no slack whatsoever. Also does anyone know if they sell a 3 pin to 2 pin wire extender for the cathode lights? Thanx a lot for any responses. And if you have any suggestions on how I can do a better job of cable management please let me know.
Regarding the 7800gt, I know it kills my FPS and benchmarks, but I'm saving up some $ for a 9800gt. Eventually I will save more $$ and get a GTX200 class card.

I have a 9800GT and its fine. I get 10001 in 3dmark 06 but you should score higher as you have c2d. I cant find any games i cant play to be fair either!

What's Up with all the dust.....
by: HavvocI cleaned it after I took the pictures. I apologize. lol. I was in a rush to take the pics after I completed everything. I probably should have dusted it beforehand. Noted for next time. :)
