Specs:
Obviously this case is empty these days, but back in '05 when it was fully functional it was sporting a Dell Optiplex GX 300 motherboard, two 1GHZ slot 1 P3 chips, 512mb of 800MHZ RDRAM and a Geforce FX5500. This was back in the days before I was an Overclocker, so all parts were at stock settings.

Mods:
Cut out front fan grill for improved air flow, painted the outside of the case and trimmed it with some awesome caution tape that I stole from my first job :cool:

This boy was my first build and mod, I bought all the parts because at the time I had an old IBM Aptiva that had an AMD K6-2 that was running at 450mhz (I played with the switches though and somehow got it to 800mhz before it burned out :laugh:) I was upset at that time because I had bought BF2 and couldn't play it on that crappy machine so I went on a hunt and picked up these parts and spent way more than I should have to get it running. In the end it was able to run BF2 at low settings though.
