The 'Nipples"

Here's another for a mate. Bit of a tight ass didnt want to spend sweet fa on the build, hence the poor quality ram and low specs.

I talked him into running Windows 7 X64 RC as he wanted to put Vista 32 bit on it.

Case - iCute S901-5G1 with 25cm FAN Black
PSU - Thermaltake TR2 RX 450W (Modular)
Mobo - Gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L
CPU - Intel Dual Core E5200
Ram - 2 x 1gb 667mhz
Vid Card - XFX 8600GTS
HD - 1 x 160gb for OS etc
HD - 1 x 500gb for backup, movies, music etc
OS - Windows 7 X64 RC

Here's my old build
Thats an 8gb kit of ram in there as well, plus getting a 295gtx in a few weeks.
I've painted this case so many times now and cut so much out of it too.







The PSU

40" of fury

i spent nearly an hour in front of my 40" LCD 1920x1080 and ended up with a big headache, ended unplugging it and going back to the old 22".

An recent example of how that shitty little office Dell pc you got from work can be used for gaming purposes. Did this for a mate while back.

Always sketch your cuts, although in this case 2 fans ended up going in.

The XFX 8600 GTS was always going to stand out in this case.

As you can see theres not alot of room for much action. The standard 280w psu came out in the end the vid card needed more juice, so a 450w Thermaltake Toughpower went in. This really made the machine look gutsy as another hole needed to be cut in the case to make it fit. Sorry i have no pics of the full end result

Cool to see the latest photo's man. God I have to get MSN to work here.... ** considers bypassing the damned default router that everyone else goes off of...**
