To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
E7200 @ 3.6GHz (idle 25c, load 40c - Arctic Freezer 7 Pro)
Asus P5K P35 1600Mhz
0CZ 1066MHz 2x2GB
nVidia 8800GTX 768mb
Creative SoundBlaster Xtreme XF-i
Samsung Spinpoint 500GB + 320GB
Asus 20x DVDRW
Hiper 580w
Asus VH226 22" 2ms 1920x1080

Mods:
Desk Mod, HDD + CD Rack from random Skip case

Start this back in October, i worked on it and posted progress on here for afew weeks. Then due to college work and money, i had to pause construction. Now though, i've finished it and feel it's ready to be released. Also, i had neons in the desk, but they broke recently, so im doing without. On the picture of the draw below the motherboard, there is a fan at the back. And, on the desktop picture with all the scores and temps, thats underload. Usual idle temps are 23/27 for the CPU and 38 for the GPU.

Special Thanks to all the people who helped me through this.

I may redo the front, but i would have to have the panel special made. I didn't buy this desk, it was made for me.

Thanks for the replies guys. And im not sure about a tutorial, theres just so many different ways.

Ah, thanks for everyone who voted decently (5/10?.. ok).

I'll be deleting this and putting up a V2 soon, so keep an eye out.
