I have the same case, but black =)

Good airflow, means lower temperatures.

dang where'd you get that blue wire loom??? i need some

blackhabit · Apr 8, 2003

looking good

Cjwinnit · Apr 8, 2003

Quite nice, well done on a sweet mod.

RagingGecko · Apr 8, 2003

Very nice job. Now if only I wasn't so cheap I'd get me some of those rounded cables.

Flat ones make for a very messy case.

CSaddict · Apr 8, 2003

Gecko 2 of those are flat cables that I twisted and put loom on. I got the blue loom at autozone. It came in a 10 foot length. Its 3/8 but I'm going to do my buddy's 1/2.

I just cleaned up the wires in my case by putting them behind my mobo. I need to get heatshrink tubing or loom for the ide cables though...

SpliT71 · Apr 8, 2003

thanks csaddict, how much did you pay for it?

mbentley · Apr 9, 2003

now that is a picture perfect case IMHO. very nice and clean... i need to do that someday

my system isn't complete enough to warrant me using anything more than zip ties

i tend to more stuff around a lot

CSaddict · Apr 9, 2003

Split I believe I paid like 5 bucks for it. Its very cheap and cuts with normal sissors. Easiest mod I even did and most effective.

SpliT71 · Apr 9, 2003

i really wanna get some it looks so nice on yours

webfreak · Apr 10, 2003

Heh, I have a rounded ide cable for my hdd. I originally bought 2 ide cables and a floppy cable, and one of the ide cables decided to die on me after a few days of using it, so I had to switch back to the regular IDE cable for the cdrom drives. The floppy cable never really worked with my floppy drive, I guess the drive must be too old or something. Who needs a floppy drive anyway

. I'm seriously thinking about just taking it out of my case. Anyway...

Funny question dude.
Just buy it and you'll know.

Here I just put my mouse wire in it just to show you:

CSaddict · Apr 10, 2003

Thanks Dumpa. That's correct. Its split loom.

Can you post a bigger picture ?

It's too small for me but it does look very nice.
