Not much. Created a few holes for power cables and painted the floppy drive. I need to do more.

I thought it was about time I posted my system. It's prime95 stable at 3.75Ghz 1000Mhz FSB with the memory at 500Mhz 3-4-4-8.

Come on guys. Only one comment? Surely someone can think of something that needs improving.

we need more pics to offer suggestions, them 3 dont tell that much.
 
Sounds good. I'll do that.
 
I have 3 of that main board, all left overs from upgrades for people. I used to own one my self. I glad you could overclock it i could not.
 
I added some more pictures. Unfortunately a few of them were cropped, so if you want to see the whole picture you'll have to view it in the gallery.
 
i like the red/blue two-tonedness(<----new word :p)
nice cable management.
9/10
 
You could cut out a cool shape out on the side or paint it with car paint
 
8/10. Not exactly the best looking/best cable management in the light, but when the lights go out, it looks INCREDIBLE. I mean, I thought that red+blue would get you purple haze....nope :). Awesome red/blue contrast.
 
Thanks, I'm going to try and improve the cables this month. Now that school is out I'll have the time. I'll post new pictures when it's done.
 
I like the way the video card separates the blue section and red section. Some cable management and you'll be set :D
