Hey everyone, I finally finished both my computers and i am using my computer i built for my basement. I even spent the money for a wireless keyboard and mouse. Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who bothered to take the time to help me. I am pretty new to this building computers stuff, but I learned a ton from this experiement and I really appreciate all the help everyone has given me, it helped me out a ton.
 
Building a comp for the first time is always daunting, but what you learn will save you many a hair and less frustration and getting bent over the table by manufactured comps.

Imagine getting a top of the line motherboard with SATA, RAID controllers, multiple added expansion slots. And you are like WTF is this shit.

Cathode tubes, AKA neons suck. If you're going to get into modding, and don't want to have a tacky looking PC, you're going to use LED's :). Pre-fab mods suck.

Come on :o if done in a way that they are hidden the neons look good. specifically black lights. Its the people who do not look at the astetics of he cas as a whole that make it look tacky :( I am not gonna argure that a good led bus config doesn't look bad but sometimes you need a little extra umph.

I keep forgetting to snap my rig and post it it is tasteful with chrome wireloom led HS fan black lights and stealthed drive bays. simple elegant and quiet. :P
