Title: New Gaming Box Pics
Post by: TX-Rahman on October 28, 2002, 01:53:48 pm
Ok Gents.....The new box is up and running now that I ditched the Gigabyte board and went with Asus....here are some pics of what it looks like so far. Please overlook the overall grainy-ness of them....I don't have a kick butt digital camera...
Pic from the side with the flash on to let you see just how green the case is...heh
Shot from the side with the flash off so you can see the lighting effect. Note I also have 5 of the 4 LED fans in here besides the 2 cathode tubes.
Another shot from the side with ths cathodes off. Don't stop here...cool pics coming down the page!
Here is a picture of the power supply. I put this cool mod on that uses a clear lexan cover.
Next is a pic of the Thermal Take memory heat speader for the DDR Ram.
Note all the cables are neatly wrapped in this corrugated looking stuff.
I also added the Thermal Take heat fins to my PNY GEForce TI4400 card.
Of course...UT is my fave game of all times so I had to have a UT badge on the front.. Umm....well they didn't have an IL2 badge!!
This is a pic of the front panel...yes I need a black burner! This is just to show the cathode power switch installation.
Another shot from the side with the flash on. Note here the 60mm CPU fan has been replaced with a 60-80 adapter with an 80MM LED fan w/ Atomic grill.
NO GIGABYTE INSIDE!!!!
Hope you enjoy these....also have the matching keyboard and mouse. Just wanted to share these...took a bit of time to get this working but it seems to really be stable now that I put an Asus board in....

Ahhh SHADDUP! 
The reviews on anandtech.com rated this board higher than the Asus. If you happen to look on Tomshardware.com, Tom rates both of these boards at the bottom....I overlooked checking out Tom's. He suggests the Soyo Dragon Ultra Platinum or the Shuttle board.BLOOT!
