Specs:
System is as follows.
AMD X2 3800+ @ 2.6Ghz (E4 Revision), ASRock 939Dual SATA II, G.Skill 2x512Mb @ 460Mhz, eVGA 7900GTX (700/1800), WD320GB + WD400GB, SB Live 5.1, Hiper 580W (38A),
In the last pic is my whole setup with my Laptop and my 22" LCD.
This is my overall rig that i usually play games on it. Planing to update it soon at the end of the year.
Mods:
Cut through some parts of the case to receive a better airflow. The case is of unknown brand (at least i have not able to establish from which company is from). Pretty much your regular setup with a few mods. :)

Hmm... weird PSU mounting style... i wouldnt mount it like that if i were you. Pretty nice overall, just needs some improvement to the wiring and intake fan. Well in a practical sense your wiring is PERFECT. I like it how u got a stilt for ur graphics card though... it looks nice overall.
7.900 out of 10.
EDIT: That "airflow" is negated due to the lack of the intake... yeah buy yourself a nice fan for the intake man... or else all this wiring's potential is negated... like same here, except in a vain sense for my PC, its got so much potential inside.. but totally ruined outside :(

What is that 7.9 out of 10? Are you gonna add your own rating rules here TK?
Just vote for his case man.
Oh yeah i like your case. Looks clean.
The only thing i would do is turn around your psu. Now it blowing the hot air into your case.
7 from me.

The thing is that the way the PSU mounts is like that. So in order for me to mount it the other way i have to reverse the mounting joints on the case which means cutting it and it is far too much trouble for that.

your air flow is negative... the fan for the cpns is suppose to be in the front blowing to the back... the air flow is front = in, back = out... the psu is on it's own airflow since it takes air from the outside of the case and blows air to the outside of the case.. so you don't need to worry about that, you just need to worry about the front fan, hsf, and the rear fan... make sure you flip the hsf the other way, and make sure that the front is blowing in, the back is blowing air out of your case.

The fact of the matter is that i do not have an front intake to begin with. The front of my case is shut so no air can get in. Though i am planing to drill some grill holes into the case so i can use the front intake.

I like it. 8/10 from me. Get rid of that ribbon cable! I like the unique PSU mounting you got going on there. I see you are into the aircooling game. I'd replace those 120mm's with these

They are a little loud. Not vantec tornado loud but loud non-the-less. But they move HUUUGGGEE amounts of air. I have one of them plus a panaflo that moves about 100 cfm and my pc loves me for it :-)
