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.

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
