Bob808,

The build looks fantastic, clean, and professional. A testament to the reality that behind tray cable management isn't required for a clean look if the build is simple and the builder is smart. I'm glad to see it all together and working. Very good job!

Regards,
Eric

Great assembly, tempting parts, beautiful work.

Anything particularly good or bad stand out?

Does the stock AMD heatsink any noise worth changing?

Hey guys, After seeing the pc that I made for my boss, a co-worker of mine wants one too.
Can you guys take a look at THIS shopping cart and leave any suggestions on what you would change either to save $$ or replace with a better option. I will appreciate any helpful posts- Thanks!
