yes, its been a very long time

i suppose our sifu here does not want to disclose info on how he hid the cables, so im going to add to the speculation

he said no additional holes were made, but theres nothing to say that the holes werent already made for him. i suppose he just pulled the cables back behind the mobo and then routed it to the front panel underneath the PATA cables, or even behind the drive itself. i suppose the same was done for the 4pin CPU power cable.

of course, he could have made 23rd century modifications to send power to the mobo wirelessly, and all these cables are just for show

im still in the midst of post-format chaos but i managed to some pics. what do ya guys think?

I see that ur still with the ol skool gheytorian. Hahahahah

wahahahaha, datz 1 interesting way to put it sniper..

btw, Silon, your CACING punishment is better than mine laa..

[x]school is irrelevant to me, i just use whatever suits my style

there are still certain things here and there that i am not bothered to sort out, but overall quite nice

thanks!

very very nice, maybe you should help me out on my PC.

Anyway, i see that you do not have to change the F64 after all, a perfect fit eh?

dat freezer is indeed an eye candy, i hafta admit it as I still haf it in my collection even afta changing to SI120.. tot of building 1 silence PC later on..

to Silon

yeah i still have it too,

but i have to admit, the Freezer 64 has nothing to shout about. It's noisy, and it whines.

nah, i wont bother about your rig. i have a life you know

anyway, i cleaned the base with Articlean 1 and 2 and i did not encounter the ghastly patches of evil you did. id post the pics but im having stability *issues* with the system. i have reason to suspect its the mobo. [stop smirking you nvidia fanboys. i still wont buy an NF4 ]

edit: oh yeah, and the NB HS fitting is very tight, just 1/4" clearance.
again, i have pics, but like i say, im having *issues*.

its cheap. thats its trump card. mediocre price, resonable performance and noise.

Finally update your sig to XFX 7600gt

So, you are still on A2ZS and not EMU ??
Where are those sponges?

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm what kind of issues are you having with the board?

yeah, the xfx is just a beauty. i expected a green PCB but it came in black. other nice touches include the 'backbone' at the side, coloured in black as well. the black extends to the backplate, where the DVI connectors are nvidia-green. really nice stuff.

oh, and the box would make any X-men fan proud. XfX's signature X-shape is really eXtraordinary. i counted 4 'X'es

im on both cards, music with the 0404 and HL2:DM with the audigy [the connectors are as loose as the teeth on an >80 year old person ].

i took a pic without them. it looks cleaner this way, i took another one with, but like i said, im still having *issues* that i need to solve

random restarts. i think i kinda *fixed* it by reapplying the thermal paste that i F'ed. time will tell

the 7600GT is really sweet......me no moolah to get one....duh....
i only see a sound card there lolx

yeah, i had to install the A2ZS drivers before i install the 0404. [windows /heh]

btw, here is how it looks in final:



not as nice as without the foam, but after the sidepanel goes on i cant see them and i get a 60% reduction in noise, so its worth it


edit: oh, and had i not spend all my cash on audio stuff [gigaworks, 0404, aegoM] i would be having myself a 7-EIGHT-00 already

My humble setup, forgive the bad cable management, too much hardware inside and too lil space to work with:

omg!!!! run guys~ run! the foams are back!!!! ahahahaha.. care to have a shot wif the side panel on then? as long s it looks good n practical enuff, ok liao~.. ahahahaha

yeah man, especially with the L size gfx card... uhuhuhuhu. i wonder, y didnt u sleeve the molex cable s well?

@r4ydc24
how 2 sleeve, Enermax Liberty PSU ler, modular already, thinking of upgrading my casing to a TT armor, coz got more hardware to go in, another HDD and 2 x CDRW, and probably a SLI setup.

@aaron_lwm
omg aaron...wanna add more stuff again?
u oledi hv 2 dvdrw..go in 2 cdrw again? u making business ah?

forgive me for being blunt, but your comp [especially the mobo ] is not 'humble' at all

as for the cable management, ive just as many hardware as you [bar the 6800GT's external power connector].

LOL ill try to upload some pics over the next few days. still in the middle of reformatting my comp. ive changed my mobo to a DFI lanparty, i will upload the new pics [again] over the next few days...

@silon
pending another HDD and 2x CDRW's lar. Haha, my mobo ok-ok nia lar, actually wanted the A8N32X-SLi, or the DFI LP Xpert. But ur rig is real simple and nice. Besides ur praetorian has more space to work with compared to the Centurion 5
