that was a horrible place to put a 24 pin connector :lol:. Cable management is definitely very good considering what you were dealing with, I liek how you did the IDE cables :D although it's probably not very good for airflow.

The cable management is so good!

I don't think I've ever owned a M/B with that 24p placement. Interesting...

When were PATA cables ever good for airflow? :lol:

Although there are round ones, but they look rather ugly imho (at least the ones

I've seen).

By that I meant the way he put them was even worse than usual for airflow xD.

The airflow is till good. all the fans spin @ 12volt its not silent but it cools ok.

I like the place for the 20pin atx connector. If its on the 2012 spot where the ide is located on this board it became far easier a mess in this build.

Rounded IDE cabels are so ugly!

Huh, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks so. And if your air flow is still good

with the flat cables, all the better :)

Oh dear lord, childhood memory overload (well, my teens, really, but you get the point)! :wub: :D

Oh yeah, that would be awesome. But not with today's thin alu sheets but with the building

standards of the days gone by. Alu cases were quite a bit more solid back then.

I agree, and this thread had my memory going. Companies like voodoo and Falcon NW used to use this case and use lambo paint on them and charge $5k for a top end pc. I just checked and they are still around....and doing the same lol.

Thanks to you all!

Yeah!! That should be so awesome! Maybe I gonna redesign it myself I have some ideas for it. And send it to Coolermaster :)

Indeed with the same material as the ATC201 and 240mm rad support and elss 5.25.

 

Charger: I use the ZIP drives to transfer games to my MS-Dos gaming rig. Work perfect!

 

Axis: Yeah the SB Live Platinum is awesome! I found a second bay unit in the thriftshop! So I can do a second machine with the platinum setup!

 

Jay123: Yeah f*ck crysis :p I can play the really cool games :P

 

MrSuperb: I use 2 soundscards because it looks cool to fill the whole case with nice hardware. A friend gave the terratec soundcard + module to me. He had bought it new for 600 euro! It has 8x audio in and 8x audio out and Midi In/out. I need to install more software and then I can make recordings with the card. And the SB-Live is for the games.

 

FireFox hahahaha :D

 

The video is online!!

 

 

Please Enjoy watching! You can leave a comment and like the video if you enjoyed it! :)
