To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
Motherboard--Asus p5q Pro
INTEL E7200 overclocked to 3.6 GHZ
6 GB RAM OCZ branded RAM
2x ati 4870s in crossfire
1 1TB Western Digital and 1 500gb HD's
LG BLU-RAY Player

Mods:
My very first case! Buttons around BD disc drive are retrofitted power/reset buttons for pc, working on getting led for hdd working. Need to figure out a good bezel too. Basically tore apart an old n ugly centurion case and used it as a mobo tray. Used some of the case wiring for the power/reset button to work. My HDD's are on the right side hidden and mounted with a coolermaster 5in1 cooling unit.

I voted 4/10 because:

Creative but not very display worthy. It would be the same as turning an old coffee table or nightstand into a case. I guess it's a cheap way of keeping your parts together. ;)

it's far more functional than that as the buttons work and the speakers inside the unit still sound phenomenal!

FYI I wasn't insulting your rig, just not something I would setup myself since I don't fancy antique furniture all that much. :)
