Mods:
I ordered up one of those DIY window mod kits and some green cathodes and went to town, and it came out quite nice.

This is my main gaming rig and I use it almost every day. The only thing I am truly dissatisfied with is the motherboard. It was designed to be used in an HTPC and here I am using it for gaming. Senior98 once said, "He got it out of a Fruit Loops box or something."

Very nice, not too messy, just dont like the excessive green usage but I'll let that pass...

Gimme URL for that window kit, I've been dying to find a decent one.

I like it a lot especially the green and blue. The window kit is definitely a good touch. Also, It's decently specced. 9/10 when I can vote.

The mobo was part of a CPU&Mobo combo deal at frys, so it was pretty cheap. The main thing that is wrong with it is that it's not designed for gaming. The northbridge overheats a lot while I am gaming. (need to get a little fan for that) Also, it's kinda ugly :P

Heh im worse, green mobo and crappy silver NB cooler... :(

Rather than get a fan, get something like a thermaltake spirit :)
