Performed mods

Added Scyth Kama bay to the 3 unused 5-1/2" and replaced the fan with a Coolermaster 120mm Blue LED fan.
Added OCZ Memory cooler, I found it was loud so I put a single fan control on it and now its acceptable.
Got 2 12" Cathodes underneath it to add an under glow affect [I did this when it used to be on my desk and was quite visible its not so easy to see on the carpet.)
Also did some cable management.

Shadow, I would only upgrade to the phenom if it actually clocks good. I won't be really buying one unless the 9600 Black over clocks well.... Its supposed to but we'll see. the Phenom 9900 is just about on par with the QX6700 so AMD getting there. (I'm never gunna buy another Intel product soo... ya lol. To many bad experiences with them in the past I really don't care who performance champion is I'm a Loyal AMD man.)
