Hi guys,
Figured ill show you my machine. It started out as a standard build with an Antec 900.....
I plan on building a whole new system next summer. This is my first baby, shes three years old, runs just as fast (if not faster, since I added RAID0) since the day i built it.

Obvious black paint job.
Installed Zalman GFX cooler on my 8800GS
Much better cable management. I cut 3 holes behind my motherboard to route cables. the first hole is the big one on the bottom to route all power cables and front usb port cables. second hole is near the top for the 4pin CPU cable. third hole is for light switch, GFX fan, and rear exhaust fan power cables. the cables for my hard drives are also tucked away much better

...but I bet you feel pretty good about the result!:up: IMHO it's one of the best places of a build to spend large portions of time on.
Great job!
