Thanks man, appreciate it. It's my first real desktop build since the X1900XTX was top-of-the-line (still have that card somewhere around here haha) so it's nice to be back in the desktop world.

@skidude If I was building a PC now, I would have have gotten the exact internal components except for the PSU. :D
Sweet build :good:

I got an old X1950 pro around here too...

And how is the cable management? I was thinking of a storm sniper for my new build.

I was going to get a Corsair 650W originally but this PSU was on sale for $79 marked down from $120 so I had to pick it up. So far it's nothing but quality.

For a Mid Tower it's really great. Naturally if you don't have a modular PSU it will be hard to get it perfectly clean (see my hard drive cage area for an example) and you'll be stuffing wires behind the motherboard tray but if you have a modular PSU this case would be superb for it. Plus it looks really simple and clean, and the airflow is great.

I have the Storm Scout, though, so the Sniper would have even more room.

Why not the psu, that's a great one, much better than yours.
I know it is better than mine.
I said if I were building one now and I was not comparing it to the one I own now.Not so good with the reading thing aren't you :p
Anyways I would have taken a Seasonic(or Seasonic Internals) PSU.
The one which he has now is an awesome PSU, nothing bad I have to say about it, but it is uncanny like his entire config is what I would have bought that is why I mentioned the PSU.And I prefer modular.

If I ever upgrade it I'll definitely be buying a modular PSU, but I was on somewhat of a budget so I couldn't afford to get a good, modular one.

i think everyone would agree to getting modular, but god why do they have to be so much, would be funny if it turned out you can just open up you psu and the cords are plugged in, and modualrs just move it and allow you to decide, basically meaning they double the price to move the port onto the case
 

lovely?

well the extra price is partly due to the extra connections that need to be made. a regular psu's rails solder straight into the psu. on a modular, you need to solder the rail to a connector on both ends, and solder all new connectors into the psu as well. alot of these arent cheap either, believe me. :rolleyes:

so you're saying that they have to add in a whole 1 more robot to go *solder-solder-solder-off to packaging* and that's why it casts double the price, thank god, if you had said that and i didn't know the price i'd've said they'd'v tripled it :p

Okay, cool, I was just wondering since you have a smaller one, if that was good, mine would be better. Wish it had the rubber grommets like the corsairs or NZXT phantoms, but it should be fine.

Yeah cable management is key, you can run that 24-pin power cord up behind the mobo tray and out the opening up top if the cable is long enough, and the 8-pin CPU power can easily go behind as well, makes it look much nicer.

How's that 580 treating you? :)

Looks nice man nice system you should get 5 good years out of that technology before you will need to upgrade.
