Hope you like it- I'll try to get a picture from the side so you can actually see inside - the perspex seems to screw up the camera..

lets have a look at the inside then
As you command *bows*
Cables could do with sleeving but i'm lazy at the moment, so i just attempted to shove them into the two free 5.25" bays. note attempted...
amazing how a flash can get past all the blueness..
My suggestion there would be to have a bit of a tidy up of the cables, and perhaps hide the gaffer taped inverter inside the hard drive bays - your airflow & therefore temps will thank you for it
Otherwise looking good, how loud is the stock amd fan?
Agreed with what Dave says. Spiral wrap is your friend, as are cable ties, cheap as chips and will do wonders for your case
It's not too loud.. i'd say about ~25db, but when you add in the rest, it's not quiet.
I'm going to get some of the amber akasa fans (or SilenX if i can afford it) and a better CPU cooler.
temps wise, the case ambient is usually about 27 idle and in the mid 30's ingame.
SilenX are a waste of money, far better to get some variable speed fans (like the white Silverstone fans) and use those. Akasa Ambers are good, but cannot be turned up if they're not moving enough air
Would a fan controller do the job? I was just going to get an Akasa Pro (whatever it's called) for christmas anyway.
And i've just realised that i'm building an almost completely akasa based system..(case, lights, fans, fan controller) but never mind..
Speedfan rocks for fan controlling
New upgrades now all complete, case tidy up also done
New mobo, cpu, gfx, cooler!
(^ running x2 4200+ now)
New PSU (corsair HX520)
New GFX card (7950GT 512MB)
And the wiring...
Fin
Wow, nevermind the cool PC - thats some awesome camera work!

- me, 2005
yeah.. i was thinking the same thing.. what camera are you using?
Nice pc too.. and portfolio (checked out your site)
Thanks! I am using a Canon 350D, these shots were done with the kit lens, some say the kit lens is bad quality, you decide
Nice setup, nice pics
How much time do you guys invest in setting up your rigs? For me it's about a day, which I feel is excessive..
Not a lot first building them - but once I'm sure all the components work a couple of hours tidying it and working the best way to route cables & stuff
Everytime i get mine tidy, it's time for something newOriginally Posted by KingJimi
