Better image..

Looks good man, I like it a lot!

I love the Raven cases. They look so nice.

 

[jrwizbang]

I was actually thinking about getting a Silver Stone Raven but they are just barely out of my price range right now. Next case upgrade will probably be the Corsair 800D though. But that won't be for a while 😛

cool little case you have there.

 

[aznshinobi]

Pondering building an ITX or mATX build with box sized proportions. Looks like it'd be nice and simplistic. Plus easy to bring places.

I do like seeing your skeleton, I liked it the first time round hehe,

[rufus_22]

It was when I started, now its the Psycho Rider, just like its owner hehe
Its a bit modded from standard, it doesn't come with acrylic window, front panel is at top, not on the door and obviously the W/c kit is welded on afterwards
Moto

Yah ..I know .. Just wanted ya to post the pic again .. Nice build . Generally I dont like components outside the case but it works on your's . especially the res's .. good job

 

[jrwizbang]

I've also been thinking of sometime down the road building a small portable system/lanbox for lan parties and such, or whenever I need to bring it anywhere else.

If I can sum up my thoughts on this, it would probably be - perfectly simple
I like the case, very interesting look to it.

Hey Keiki, long time no see man, looking good there
a few cable niggles but overall bloody nice mate
Moto

 

[robertris2]

looks pretty good. Is that a green zip tie on your cpu block? lol
And, did you mod your hdd rack or is that the way it comes?

 

[akamrcrack]

Mmk.. I'll do it once I get back. 😛

lol I picture you running around frantically trying to make final touches to cable management in fear of the moto 😉

 

[jrwizbang]

@Keiki, nice setup. I like the look of it. Could do a bit better on cables but still pretty good. One example is your HDD cables, those could be tucked away a bit better.

 

[robertris2]

SOLD:
N460GTX Hawks (TwinFrozr II) in SLI for $135 apiece ($270)... 😗

REPLACEMENT:
MSI N570GTX Twin Frozr III PE (Fermi) 1280MB 320-bit GDDR5 😉

REASON:
1.) I can
2.) power consumption and heat
2a.) summertime approaches and it's hot already
3.) 1080P resolution not surround on this unit
4.) strong single card configuration
4a.) room on motherboard in-case PCI slots needed for 'real' tech-station..
5.) non-gaming unit so loosing a few frames if I do game on unit doesn't matter (factor in #2 and #3)

Man, you're going to enjoy that upgrade. I love your #1 reason.

 

[akamrcrack]

I couldn't fathom spending $1000 on a card. I'm close to content with the 6850 lol.

Does 1K seem excessive for a vidya card? If so, come pick up our $999 gpu. Its a whole column of digits less!

 

[Keiki646]

@Keiki, nice setup. I like the look of it. Could do a bit better on cables but still pretty good. One example is your HDD cables, those could be tucked away a bit better.

Yes but the other panel side doesn't have much room for cable management space, but getting a new case soon
but happen to make a new paint job on the case

Nice pictures.

This is why I absolutely hate the 77 layout for mini-itx builds. Its just horrible, look at the usb 3.0 cable, the way it mounts there's no other way to feed it, on top of the fact that putting an aftermarket cooler would block the PCI X slot, which this client is going to put in a 660 when they are available so I had to stay with a stock cooler. I love the case, I hate the motherboard, and I'm very dissapointed in the processor, the i7 3770S should run way cooler even on stock heatsink.

10 point to whoever can figure out whats going on here!!!

 

[Motopsychojdn]

That would be frickin' awesome except for, yeah, you KNOW what I'm callin you on man,
Sort them cables out and you have an MDPC right there, don''t let yourself down!!
Moto

 

[jrwizbang]

Yeah it seems a bit excessive to me. Still though it is nice. Just tuck away some cables and it'll look at least 10x as nice.

 

[Motopsychojdn]

Lose the label off the Psu as well now I think about it
