My newest case finally arrived from Cali.
Will update regularly..if regularly updated.

It's a double wide case, so the power and massive radiator are on the other side.

Small update: changed the back and front fans, changed to a 760W psu, add a fan filter, changed the power switch to a red one.

>>25304 no mind, HAL, I'm on the PS3 anyway.

thank you, JC. The computer works good, now to fine tune windows 7..

I changed the fan controller so I can see it in the dark (I often game without light)

Made some changes. Radiator will be mounted a tab bit higher, the psu will sit lower (I can hide the cables better)

>>25206 I do the same and have been since I can remember. There's always something to create, fix, or just admire. It keeps us going and is the best therapy in the world. The key word, and you've mentioned it, "No pressure".

>>25205 first I overclock the processor (standard 3.4GHz, will do 4.0GHz), overclock the graphics card a bit. It's my everyday computer; which means hardcore GAMING! ;)

>>25206 I don't time it but if I had to guess it would be 4 hours or so. On weekends more. Currently waiting on parts, non essential so I can try the leak test today. The great thing is that there's no pressure.

How many hours a day do you devote to projects (your own fun time, of course)?

the power supply and the 360 (3x120mm) radiator in the rear room. It's still a work-in-progress..I might install the radiator on a side mount, but not sure. I need time to think ;)

the motherboard tray is removable, handier to change components that way
