I finaly trashed my old ***** to work in case of red plastic **** (yeap I said red plastic ****, notice I refrain from giving it its proper materiel names) and Im moving into a Centurion 5 that I got at microcenter for $35 clerance (srsly, great clerance deals at Microcenter ALOT!) So I spent a few hours installing and wiering..and it still looks like crap.

The good news is its a big quieter and smaller and ... uh.. less red.

I did have to slightly modify a few things, but only by a few mm. And I dont have a back I/O plate ... since it was quite litterly glued to the old case.

lol. now, if only I could get some red LED's for the front activity and power i would be happer, the blue LEDs are REALY, like...light up the oposite side of the large room bright.
I just gota figure out a method of mounting the Cen5 on the arm I have, not sure how, but it will be cool when I do :D

prob should have done that first but I was impatient :P


p.s. I had to use white zipties couse im out of black LOL.

I dont have a digital camera.

Its not realy a big deal, I was thinking it provides a big vent for the nv120 anyway. But its a evga 680i A1 i/o pick here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ShowImage.aspx?CurImage=13-188-013-05.jpg&Image=13-188-013-01.jpg%2c13-188-013-02.jpg%2c13-188-013-03.jpg%2c13-188-013-04.jpg%2c13-188-013-05.jpg%2c13-188-013-06.jpg%2c13-188-013-07.jpg%2c13-188-013-08.jpg%2c13-188-013-09.jpg%2c13-188-013-10.jpg&S7ImageFlag=0&WaterMark=1&Item=N82E16813188013&Depa=0&Description=EVGA+122-CK-NF68-A1+ATX+Intel+Motherboard
