Is it good or bad? I been thinking about getting this and a Amd 64 3000 with a Dfi Lanparty Ultra D. So let me know if its good or if theres something better for around the same price thanks.
 
on the other hand
"stiff" wires often have alot of "memory"
(it really depends on the assorted layers that comporise the harness)

using a hair drier or heat gun, can often allow you to "shape" then to exactly the arc you want and they will stay that way, I do something similar with spiral wraps on many of my cases.


basically every cloud has a silver lining
well unless they are too short that is :p

Do you guys think the Fortron Blue Storm 500w psu would be better?

Personally I wish I would have. The Fortron has more power, is just as quiet (uses the same type of fan), has better sleeving and cabling, and is fully ATX 2.0 compliant. The only thing the Modstream has over it is that it's modular.

In fact, I might be willing to sell it to you if you are interested. :) Only 2 weeks old.
 
Using a modstream and love it. The reach is just fine in my case and it's fairly large.
 
$6.99 MINIMUM for shipping. :)

You will be out of pocket a MINIMUM of $97 until which time you recieve your MIR back, at which point you will still have paid $2 more for a power supply that has not yet been proven non-DOA. ;)

See the date on that picture? That's the day I installed it, so it is only 8 days old. :cool:

It looks good, it works well, and it's quiet, but the cable sleeving makes the cables TERRIBLY stiff and hard to route. They are also very short, in fact if you have anything larger than a mid tower the ATX may not even reach your motherboard.

Example (mine):

Roger that.
I can agree with Stellar on this one. It isn't too much of a worry, but they were stiffer then I had expected.

BTW: You got some mint cable mangement in there :)
