Hi everybody!
I must sell my system to finance a laptop purchase. This is my personal system, and I bought all the best hardware for it. It has not been overclocked, but it is capable. Hard drives will be reformatted and will be wiped clean before shipping.
I'm asking $675 shipped with insurance inside the US. Will trade for laptop, send me specs and references.

http://www.so-trickcomputers.com/Mer...tegory_Code=C2 Awesomely flexible case with lots of cooling options. Very aesthetically pleasing and functional. An 80mm tri-led case fan was factory installed in the window.
I have added a few modifications to the case for both aesthetics and functionality. See the pictures in the below links.
Modifications:
2 12” Blue Dual Tubed SUPER BRIGHT Lights with switch mounted on top of case for easy toggling of the lights on or off while the system is running.

92 mm Case fan with grill added to top of system for added ventilation of heat that normally accumulates at the top of systems.
2 handles were installed in the top for easy transport.
The interior of the case was painted white with 1 coat of Rust-Oleum primer and 2 coats of Rust-Oleum Painters Touch white paint. This was done to change the standard metallic inside and to heighten the effect of the lighting. A case is not finished until the inside is painted. J
4 of the 80 mm case fans are tri-color led lighted fans and the PSU has blue led 80mm fans as well.
All the wires were hidden with ducting to make the case look cleaner.
Factory rounded cables installed to ensure good air circulation in case.
