A few pics of my new PC

It's still a work in progress. I've had a few problems with it when I first put it together a little while ago. I had to RMA the MOBO once and it now looks like I'm gonna have to do it again next week.

I'll stealth my drives later.


The wires are a mess right now cause I have to keep taking it apart. Once I have my problems fixed it'll be nice and neat inside.

That is a sweet computer. I hope to upgrade mine later this year but it will not look anything like yours.

Nice setup!

Glad to see other modder's here.

I'll have to get some pics of my new rig (Thank YOU Uncle Sam!). It's a Soldam Polo R w/ a 3.06 P4 and Shuttle FB51 MB (sexy barebones PC). I also built an external water cooling unit of the same dimensions that my stuff from aquacomputer.de will be going into that the computer will sit on.

It's a factory Lian-Li window, which I just happen to like a lot more than any window kit that I've seen.

Very cool setup sixate!!

I'd still rather spend money on upgrades than making it look cool. To each his own though.

I like it a lot, it reminds me of a rig I just built ffor a customer. We used a aluminum Antec case w/black highlights and drives tho. But the inside reminds me of it. If I remember to take pics before he gets it, I'll post them

You need to find some square 80mm fan grilles for the front intake fans.

That is an awesome looking setup, man. Some day, when I have money, I will have a good looking computer as well! (Hopefully)

That is my PC Toys Fan Controller. I have my front intake and rear exhaust fans connected to it. It's just there to adjust the speeds of my fans. I want to add a blowhole later. I'll also have that connected to it.

Looks very snazzy sixate.

I like how it lights up under a blacklight! (at least I am assuming that is indeed a blacklight giving that nice effect).

Looking at the specs, it seems to be quite a beast in terms of processor and speed as well.
