    My new PC: First build

    Been up and running about 2 weeks now, but I thought I would get some pictures up of when I was building it. The case is an Enermax CS-527, very good quality, and good value for £35.

    It looked a right mess at first:




    The neon which came with the case took some fiddling, as it needed to be taken out to put the mobo in. Looked good once working though:



    And the huge evo33 heatsink:



    A lot neater inside now, although could still do with some tidying:



    It's blue!

    Nice could do with some cable managment, surely you dont need all those wires down the bottom but yeh that case is nice.

    Looking good, shame that case shows up finger prints easily. Otherwise it's pretty hot, thought about getting flourescent wire wrapping?

    Yeah finger prints are a bit annoying, the case has a shiney finish to it. Only looks like that when it's under direct light, so looks good under the desk.

    Where can you get wire wrapping from?

    you need to clean the window, but not a bad start for a first build.

    how about some cable tidying?
