  3. Additional 80mm intake fan in front of case
  4. PC toys ATA 133 18/24 inch round ide cables
  5. PC toys FDD 18 inch round cable
  6. Sunbeam Chameleon Laser Light controler w/4 lights (just for fun)

Here are the pre-mod motherboard pics

and on the Northbridge cooler



Over all front and side of case










Still need to do some cosmetic wrap up inside and to fix the faceplate of the watt meter.

Airflow is greater and idle temps are down by 5-10 C. :)

Will post images of lasers (when dark) later on.
