And the card itself (any more ideas)??

Looks good. Can we get a closer image of the side with the card?

EDIT: nvm. Just saw it. Looking good.

and the monitor. It has a very nice screen and is Excellent for gaming (assuming you use the DVI connecter as i do)

looks good, but what are these shuttles i keep hearing about? are they just really small computers? ive never really looked into it but now alot of people are talking about it.

hey that card will get alot better cooling like that too, its just gonna suck when (if ) you decide to get a new card with a diffrent hs.

shuttles rock!

(If you look closely, in my gallery, you will see that my SYSTEM ONE is based on a shuttle)

good idea, but is that electrical tape i see holding the plexi to the case in the back?

PaulBot · 28-October-03, 09:43 PM

The plexi is screwed in with 12 screws and the videocard is held in with electrical tape. I am currently waiting to get a bracket that will work in this case lazer cut. Once the bracket is made there will be no more tape.
