 Here's my pride and joy, the build I have decided to deem the "Blood Dragon". I originally built it mid December 2013 but didnt want to officially photograph it until I found it to be done. After some fan updates, a side panel window mod, and spray painted side panels i found it to be complete. Huge thanks to Linus Media Group and the LTT forum for all the great info and support i got along the way. Hope you like it and I am open for any suggestions you see to be still needed.

Nice clean build ^^

 

But take that badge off the front, ruins it ^^

 

And tape something over the green letters on your PSU =P

Which badge are you reffering to the MSI or the Intel. I could stand to take off the intel but certainly not the MSI badge as i believe it goes very good with the rest of the build (obvisously sisnce the gpu and mobo are). and i had considered removing the psu label.

The only CM case I like lol.  It looks nice for a budget case.  I would move the MSI case badge to the bottom of the front panel and put the DVD drive in the top bay :)

remove the PSU label, put some Blue LED to add some variety, and do some more cable management.

 

other than that its on the spot

Good job.  Although I'm left feeling you could have made the inside much neater with your cable management?

I've gone through it many times and done about all I can. The ones coming directly out of the psu are gathered as tightly as I can and the LED cable looks kinda crappy layed across the stuff when its not turned on. The only thing i can really do is get a red sleeved cable for the gpu rather than the stiff black one thats on it now.

Ive been thrilled with the performance. I was debating going sli this summer but I'd rather put the money towards a new monitor since mine now is 1680x1050 and i'd like to go with g sync.

Yea an upgrade to your monitor sounds like a good idea.  I have a 27" 1920x1080p IPS monitor and it's one of my favorite purchases to date. :)

I just built a computer with a cell micro-processor at 3.2ghz, a NVIDIA G70 gpu, 160gb hard drive, and a 230W psu. 

 

Ok I lied, that's my PS3, but seriously Adam, I will consider building one at the end of this year, like that one with the gtx 750

I would consider taking of the Intel badge. It doesn't fit the theme and makes this look unprofessional. But I agree, the Msi badge fits perfectly.
