To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
Q6600 G0 not oced yet, Abit p35 pro, 8800gts 640, zalman cooler, 150 raptor w/vista 64ultimate, WD 320 caviar, light on sata dvd burner, Silverstone 600w psu, Lian Li PV 1000b, creative X-fi extreme gameing,

Mods:
replaced all the stock fans with led fans, custom cable binding, 2 12 inch red cold cathodes. on the fan thats in the upper right hand corner, i had to drill out the mounting bracket to make the holes big enough for the screws. this isnt much and i plan on doing more in the future. ( i have ideas, but i dont know how to apply most of them)

I finally got this thing built. Built it with the money i won (3000g's y0, but didnt spend all of that on this) playing GTR2 at the
Midnight gaming championships. going to school next semester to start my computer engineering degree, so this was a fun build for me.
also havnt OCed it yet still burning in the cpu. although it runs great as is. fruityloops dosent use up 80% processor when playing a song. temps: cpu ~16c idle 33c solid at the end of a 8 hour torture test. Gpu 43c idle, ~52c load, no problems out of the psu

Not a bad build mate... I gave you a 7.

Its clean and I love LL cases. One idea which may hide a lot of those cables around the HDD would be to make a black panel that fits over the whole lot from the psu to the back of the case (so it covers the Hdd's and all the unsleeved wiring).

Appart from that... Nice one

Congrats on winnin 3 G's playin video games too.... haahaa :) lucky bastard
 
i really dont mind the cables underneath, so long as the front cover is up, but that you did give me a good idea, i could use the piece i had to remove to put the psu in to do the same thing you mentioned. thanks for the....ah.....pointer?...haha....ADVICE, yeah thanks
 
8/10 its a powerfull system i like it and i love lian li cases one question, what kind of memory are using u rig? i dont mencionated this in description.

see and vote in my case http://www.techpowerup.com/gallery/1034.html

bye ;)
 
:p i forgot my mem, hahah 2 gig A Data "extreme edition"
 
Nice build, the wire management on them case's almost look all the same, unless you do some mods on the back side, because Li-Lee left no room on the back side, good job looks good.
 
yeah, i tried to run the man 24pin cable around the backside but that was NOT happening
 
LOL
Looks like mine sort of same specs

dang that look just like mine, did you steal my new egg wish list? haha
 
7/10 from me, I love the parts (I have many of the same), but you really need to work on some major wire management...
check out my rig in my sig for some decent wire management
 
9/10 Pure Pu$$y. very nice

love the rig and really like the case. I have question, I am considering getting this same case BUT I have heard rumors that if your motherboard has a heat pipe cooler, it could effect its ability to DO ITS JOB as the board is upside down. Now, im not sure if these were from people just speculating and what not, but seeing as you actually own this case and have a heat pipe chip cooler, could you please let me know your board temps and chips? Are they sufficient for your liking? How are your case temps? And again, Love the setup

Not too bad, thanks for the quick response....Looks like just another rumor squashed if your MB is at about 24°
 
very good choice of hardware (only thing... not sure about Abit m/b), good enough cable man., great case, don´t like red lights... I believe they ruin the image a bit...
7/10, good work, man...
keep gaming!!!!
