I sorta did some cable routing, but due to space, its sorta cramped. The cables are also somewhat short and believe it or not, I'm using all molex connectors on the PSU... Something I've never done in my life. Hehe. I never thought I could use em all.

I wish the motherboard UV PCI/agp/ram slots could be more visible, but I can't be stingy ;) So here ya go... specs in signature.

Yes. It looks a lot better in real life!
I'm dissapointed in the UV rounded IDE cables I used for 1 HDD and CDRW, DVD and Floppy... they barely glow. I need to get my hands on a 8" UV SATA cable... haven't found one yet.

Here's a better pic... THE LIGHTS IN THE ROOM ARE ON! it's great! :D

Nice. I like how you still have the SuperBright Mode sticker on your monitor :D .

hehe, and it's pretty old... i got it almost 2 years ago.

The thing is that like 2 months ago, I tried taking the sticker off, and it left that sticky white residue... so i just sticked it back on :p

i need to get some of that crazy liquid thingamajig to get rid of that... googone i think its called.
 
after posting this... my WD 160GB SATA HD started having trouble!

It started whirring at a high pitch and i couldn't even move the mouse while it did this. It did it every 2-10 minutes and it would last 10-20 seconds.

Odd, since it's the first WD drive that has failed me.

I already filled out an RMA request w/ Western Digital, since Newegg would charge me 15% and some other stuff.

They are sending me the hard drive and I gotta send em the bad one before 30 days or they charge me :eek:

Newegg won't charge you 15% on defective parts, bro... the 15% is a restocking fee for the incorrect parts that are not defective (as in you ordered the wrong shit).

Good luck with that! :)

if you're willing to take a hole saw and or dremel to that lian-li, there's great room on the backside of the mainboard tray to hide the cables. That's what i did with mine

Try a citrus based cleaner. Should take that shit right off.
 
yea you could use the cleaner, or just saw the corner off the bezzle. (sorry im tired :p )

Only thing ive found that takes it off is a razor if there isnt any texture, or a strong cleaner. Never heard of using the citrus ones ill have to try that sometime
 
Whoa, yeah go through Newegg for the RMA. Probably be much quicker. You won't get charged a dime. Same thing happened to my WD drive a few months after I bought it, been running the one they sent for a few years now.

Doh! I just emailed Western Digital, hoping that they can cancel the request and refund me my money (the fuckers withdrew $140~ out of my debit card as a collateral while I send them MY drive - grrr:mad: )

I will do as most of you guys say and try through Newegg... which makes sense, since they're badass :)
