My First babies, built about the same time!!

SerialBeat...what a coincidence...haha...

I've just done these mods a couple days ago...and have more in store...

Well, I finally opted to get rid of the unsightly floppy drive, but since I have to use the 6 floppys to boot windows when I reformat, I decided to leave the cable plugged in and tucked away so I can take the side off behind mobo and plug in when I need it, which isn't too often...
And oh yea

No more sloppy floppy!! I took out the beige drive when I finally broke down and bought my new Vantec Nexus 105 fan controller....

And here's a pic without the flash on, so you see the lights a bit better...a little fuzzy..sorry

Here's another one....

And another...

I've decided to combat some of the dust that happens when you live in a building with 4400 other fools...
So I installed some mesh fan filters...they are amazing, they are 2 piece, so you dont have to take of the fan screws to clean it...it's pretty nice. I've also took one of the filters apart and put it behind the front wire mesh cover in front of the turbine looking fan...amazing what these things catch!

This is how I have my desk setup too..if anyone wants to see...

The comp on the right is the one in my sig, and the one on the left...specs in profile...Surround sound rear speakers are kept on the front corners of my desk usually...I use the one on the left when I'm oc'ing and trying to tweak my DFI system...Both monitors are connected to the one on the right...

I have currently ordered some parts to put in a window on the top of the case, with a billet blowhole fan cover...It'll look sweet..ill post pics

Here's the blowhole...

I ordered 4 of these aluminum fans...3 x 120mm and 1 x 92mm for the blowhole...

I finally got around to sleeving some of the wires, but I got a little confused on how I'm supposed to get all the wires sleeved...Oh well, guess this'll have to do...I also just picked up the ATI X1900XTX a few weeks ago, so that replaced the 7800GT I had (sittin in a box right now)

If I get time this weekend, I'll be cutting the blowhole on top and putting an aluminum fan in there.

My original plan to put in a window on the top of the case failed, as I couldnt find pre cut plexi for it. I wanted to engrave the top of the PSU, which would then be seen through the window. (I may do it this summer after I get home from school...we'll see)

I am green with envy. It will be years before my girlfriend lets me spend that much on a graphics card.

Wow, that looks pretty cool, that fan and grill on the front is a nice touch! Gives it that Locheed-Martin kinda look. Mind if I ask, how do you like your X1900XTX? Been wanting one and need justification to even think about it, I can't afford one now but maybe someday...

[s10man69]

Once ATI actually comes out with Drivers that will make use of it, I'm sure it will be great! I'm somewhat happy with it, if I were you, I'd save the money and buy an XT, not an XTX, you can flash the BIOS to an XTX and OC it to get the same speed and temps as me...But other than that, I play BF2 at an average of around 100FPS...usually never moves from 100FPS, steady. Looks good too!
