    Looks good! you might want to ask a mod to put this in the modding section, though. I think you'll get a better response to your questions there. :)

    My e-penis got hard just looking at it. Your wire organisation is supreme! My case was aesthetically spoiled by the need for big fat ugly IDE cables :(

    My motherboard is ASUS and it looks nice.

    I think you did a really fine job on your first build, most people wouldn't achieve that neatness on their first try. Also why a Micro-ATX mobo?

    well, alot of the part migrated over from my old computer (ram, cpu, soundcard, and HDD)

    my old mobo south chip died. So i went for the micro idk. didnt have enough money for a gaming 775 board.
