Hows this looking? Still needs some rounded IDE cables. I spray painted everything inside, that came out pretty good. I was going to get the nylon type sleeving but I ended up getting the plastic kind from the Wal-Mart auto department lol. $2.88 for the sleeving and $.90 for a can of spray paint. Can you think of anything else I can do to it? I was planning on getting some blue led fans... I think I'm going to stick with the ALL blue them.

Since you're saving so much on parts, perhaps you could invest in a better hfs. That stock one won't cool too well, and it's not much to look at

Nice job man!!!! I too am a big fan of blue........I am completing a custom case and installed a mirror on the floor of the case.......you could put a nice bright blue cathode light on the bottom and reflect the light up????/

this is a repeat of what others have said bunch and tie that loom together so it dont look like a rat nest in there then add some lighting and better cooling on the case and proc

looks alot better, but try running your cables around the motherboard on the right, behind the drives, and down the back side, where they are all hidden except for when you open the case

Looks better but I still think somethings missing, maybe put a cathode with the mirror like Whitelightning said or put an etched window/applique in there.

Actually, there is a blue light in the bottom heh. Its just not that bright. And the way I have my comp facing I never see the power LED hehe. But I think I might do that anyway. I have 4 case fans in there but I could definetly use a better heatsink. I was thinking about getting a volcano 12, anyone know how good they work? I heard they are very heavy and can like get ripped of the mobo and fall. Here is how I have my comp facing, lots of emphasis on the inside lol.
