Mods:
I am 15 yrs old, i cant do cable management. I cant afford anything. I put VIA CPU just cause of my chipset. Socket 478. I am trying to save up and get a total new system with either am2 or c2d. i only have the blue leds in my front part of the case.

I get like 30 fps in bf2 on medium with some things on low.

Dont worry m8 weve all been there im still doin my upgrade takes time and money invest in some round ide cables if u can cos you can still use them on your next build and if you have some black spray laying around or even a perminant marker pen color that floppy drive front in its not an expensive item anyway if u do mess up just remove it from the case first. good luck with ur saving hope u get ur dream pc someday.

I hope you get your dream PC too. What I'd change about that one...
120mm fan in the rear instead of the dinky 80mm fan
Cable managment...you can be 15 or 51, you can still manage cables! General rule of thumb- hide all cables behind drive bays, or get them as close to the drive bay as possible. And have as few stray cables as possible. Look around at what other users do, you'll see :).
Move cables AWAY from the intake, you're just blocking all the air your video card/CPU need.
Other then those issues I like it, reminds me of my first adventure into the PC upgrade/build/mod world (and I still use Darth Flatulence to this day).

Off color A drive, wires everywhere, you get a 3.

Get some cable management and you have yourself a decent looking rig. Put another 80mm fan in the back, right under the one you have and you would have some decent cooling. Currently 4/10, if you did some cable management 6/10.

Just get a few tie rips and tie the cables together. Then it should look a lot better.
For now 5 from me.
