Re: lets see your rig

Re: lets see your rig

I'd say the biggest problem is that the PSU has far more outputs than I have need for! I've bundled them up in the empty 5 3/4" bays and will rebind them soon for more aestheticness. Two of the drives are SATA so the cables are small and the IDE drives use a rounded cable. The case forces me to install the drives in the old ways with them running front to back instead of side-loading. Mebbe I can just reverse them in the cages and have things rung through the back plane.

I could really go for some power over wireless for the fans, though...

I had done that originally but there were SO many that it was blocking air from the PSU intake and the top exhaust ports. With them now in the emtpy bays air is flowing much better.

Re: lets see your rig

I did the same thing. I will have to take a more recent pic as the cable management is much better now. The only cables over the motherboard are the fan wires.

EB, what about pics of your rig?

Re: lets see your rig

I have the 20" version (AL2016W) and I have to say it is BRIGHT. I had to turn down the brightness so it wouldn't hurt my eyes.

Re: lets see your rig

I had to bump down both the contrast and the brightness to get an optimal picture. Now it looks totally awesome! I never thought I'd be so pleased with an LCD screen. I suppose I'm just jaded from using only crap Dell LCDs at work.

Re: lets see your rig

Some of the Dell FPs are nice IMO because some have a really good viewing angle, but so does this one. I just wished this was a glossy LCD like on my Acer laptop.
