The case my server is in... I got it for free, but it's just some horrible, non branded pc case, which I then "modded" (i'm a super noob at modding lol) by just drilling a ton of holes in the front so the front mounted fan had something to suck air through hahah. 

Everyone should ghetto mod a pc case at least once. Its almost a rite of passage.

What is everyone's aversion to an optical drive. When I build by new system, http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/1LxKG I'll be putting in a blu-ray drive so I can still watch my films. My most embarrassing part is currently my keyboard which is the horrible membrane keyboard which came with my brother's PC.

Probably either my secondary monitor on VGA, or the fans in my rig are all different.

My case, RAM, mobo and PSU. Case doesn't have a side panel, can't be bothered to get a new one, can't afford a nice new case. RAM is dodgy as and doesn't even run at full 1866Mhz without freezing up (might be something else doing that though...). Mobo is cheap and barely works properly, hate it. PSU doesn't even deliver a full 500W, can't even fully power my computer properly and not even 80 PLUS. Planning on building a whole new rig, but saving to get a car atm, can't get much else.

Oh, plus I forgot to mention that I have and still use an 11 year old Dell Inspiron 9300. Not embarrased though, I love that thing to bits! And I've taken it to bits working on it, that laptop is a trooper, they don't make 'em like they used to. Also, I used to run a dual Pentium III server (proper Intel server board) at LAN parties with my friends for file sharing, the slow speeds got old, quick.

Um... I have lots of embarrassing stuff, I didn't really become interested in the hardware part of computer gaming until after I bought my computer... So its pretty much all embarrassing: Non modular 750w psu, 3770, a reference Gainward 2gb 670 and so on
