Here are a few computers I've built. I have a few more that I need to photograph better. I'll add them soon. My Spiderman case will be done soon as well. The specs on them as far as hardware are impressive, but these aren't as awesome as some of the many others you've seen. Mainly they have been kept pretty simple due to lack of budget or just because I'm more of a performance kind of guy rather than a show off. I'm like the kind of guy who is always tweaking the engine and suspension rather than custom painting and interior work. I'd rather my PC perform well instead of look pretty.
This one I called the Beast. Reason I called it that was because of the massive water cooling system I had running. It was overkill to say the least. Because of the amount of drives and other crap I had installed, the wiring management was terrible looking, as there was really no place at all to hide them. You will also notice one extra long piece of tubing. The reason for it was because the tubing was so thick (O.D.) that it was kinking and causing my videocard to stress the AGP slot. This was the only way I could safely close the side panel. The inside was painted black as well.
I recently sold the water cooling parts, but I've kept the heatercore, fans, relay switch and pump for later use.
This is my current case. I need to get more photos, but you get a general idea of what it looks like. No name. Just something colorful to look at. It has 8x 80mm fans. Runs really cool and kicks ass. I'm much happier with the larger case too. Now I can fit everything in there and the wire management is much better.
Here is another machine I put together. Same case as the Beast. I called this one the Mean Green Machine. The fan on the top is there because I couldn't fit it inside. The Aspire Turbo PSU was too long for it to fit. Of well. Still looks okay though. The fuzzy stuff is sleeving that I cut in half because my brother thought that it looked cool. I couldn't get the damn ATX connector off. It was his idea to put it on there even after I told him it would look like crap. Oh well.
This is the X-Blade case I put together for my upcoming review of the Hardcano 13 on www.hardwaremods.com. Nothing fancy here. Everything is pretty much stock. Just figured I'd share some photos with you all.
I'll have some more photos soon as I finish my Spiderman mod I have a contest running HERE
