This should be in the feeback section.

Anyway, where are the mods you want us to rate? I just see a bunch of store-bought equipment.

Ok, I'll bite. The wiring is a mess, could use some attention. Nothing out of the ordinary and not even close to a "Rig of the Month" in Maximum PC. Should be in the gallery.

The wire between your ram and ur cpu hsf could be routed elsewhere, as it is it looks bad wiring wise. My wires are cleaner and I don't have a window to exhibit them. I think some spiral wrap would work wonders, and maybe 10 min of rerouting your wires and I might think about it...

But you what the sad thing is Jon? It's true. I just went back to look at it again. A friggin brush.

Reminds me of some farmers around here who whitewash their old Ford farmtrucks.

of course! LMAO "was the mouse painted with a brush?"

the KYRLON paint spray... I mixed red/black together, where u can see 360 degree the mouse, it is very clearly the mouse is colorful red or black, then I used Top Quality Paint protest and powerful wax on the mouse. it is hard to stratch with the key if u keep stratching many times, it is strong and protest paint.

Sorry ultra I wouldn't subit it to maxium pc yet. Something else is, if you are gonna have a light behind the drive covers. The least you could do is make them even,or something. It looks like the covers are from differant cases.

I gave it a "C"... it took some work, the lighting is pretty decent... but the wiring isn't there (I just spend a few days tying the hell out of both my rigs). Also the keyboard, the monitor, the case, etc... are all pretty well cookie cutter. The metal is also cut a little rough around the fans...

It'll probably impress folks at a LAN party, but I don't think MaxPC will even look at anything that is not extremely pimpin'.

If it's any consulation, I haven't even bothered submiting either of my rigs... I like 'em (and let's face it... I'm the one who gets to look at 'em everyday), but I'm a conservative... so I don't think they're wild enough for the likes of MaxPC either.

Neither rig is impressive. If you want MaxPC coverage, you need something like the Hellraiser Cube or The Caffeine Machine. Both those computers have everyday store bought mods. I'm not saying that they actually look bad, just nothing special.

These are all honest opinions guys, no one as dissing you, they're just being straight even if it hurts.

The only question is whether your willing to take what they are saying and apply a critical eye of your own, then do the work neccessary to make them better still.

No one is going to beat you up if your happy with your work and want to leave it that way, all that means is you really don't want "Rig of the Month" or any other special recognition other then your own happiness.

But if you want the "Honors" you're going to have to get mad with it
