So I started this about 2 years ago now, I never got around to making a log, but here are all the photos from start up until now.

Monitor which has one white pixel that is always white, annoying but I live with it.

spec as is it now:

CPU : i5 2500k stock with Gelid Tranquillo heatsink.

GPU : 560 ti OC froz 2

MB : GA-Z68XP-UD3P

RAM: Kingston HyperX 4GB x2 and Corsair 4GB x2 =16 total.

PSU: Aerocool Strike-x 800 Silver cert

SSD: M4 60GB

HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB

Soundcard: ASUS Xonar DG 5.1

Peripherals: Plantronic Gamecon headset (very good value) Rat 3 mouse, Cyborg keyboard.

Cooling fans: 2 x 200mm Coolermaster top (exhaust) and front (intake), 1x 140mm Sickleflow side fan (intake), 1 x 120mm coolermaster (exhaust) rear.

Additional stuff: Aerocool fan controller, Samsung Blu ray drive, Akasa multi card reader.










What was in the box! goodies :)













I have since changed to an X- Strike 800W psu, as I thought I had issues with the XFX but it was just incorrect voltages from having too much ram, oops...










And here is how she is present day...





Demci Flex dust filters :)

Added window to the side (official product) and the top (unofficial mod)



And then a window in the dvd case itself :)



Next up , watercooling :)

must be a good feeling finally finishing that.

it looks really nice. my question:

how did you make the dvd case mod :eek:


Hey thanks :)
check this OCUK guide for the dvd window mod http://www.overclockers.com/dvd-drive-window-mod-tutorial/
I had to use some very thin clear plastic packaging for the window because the perspex made it to bulky to fit into the drive bay. I used double sided sticky tape and applied some carbon fibre effect vinyl over the window to conceal it after. Also if you leave some strips of metal attaching the centre circle piece then you won't have to worry about repositioning it and glueing it in place etc. Hope this helps.
