Hola guys, ever get bored one day and you notice a little imperfection about your pc and you have the sudden urge to rebuild it?
Well that happened to me, and in the meaningful words of daft punk:"build it harder better faster stronger" ;]
Before:

Okay gents, by a rebuild I mean gutting the thing and rebuilding it from scratch.
So here we go:

also if you would be so kind as to rate the paint job I did that would be lovely ;]
Here is a front view with the cages removed:

Okay here is the board, Im going to be updating that hs on the northbridge
with this one:

It probably wont have much impact but whatever

 

[harukox]

Im also thinking about lapping my cpu and hs.
And doing push pull on the xiggy.
recommend me some fans? im thinking of scythe slipstreams

 

[bedrockhorror]

Man is that so hard to see, the pictures are blurry. By what I can tell its looking good, keep it up, by fans are you wanting colors or just a regular fan? If you lap make sure to take pics of it so we can see that shiny beast

alright, I lapped the cpu and here are the results (sorry about the quality)
Before:

Afterrrr:

I'm going to do the heatsink next

 

[harukox]

Done (with a better cam ;])
Can you guys rate it on a scale of 1/10
The lapping made a very nice improvement in my temps.
It idles at around 20-25c and loads 30-40c
also im getting another scythe slipstream for the xiggy ^_^
for some reason though I can't get past 3ghz stable at least, I got up to 3.20 but it froze on css and BSOD'd my VID is at like 4 right now but here are the pics of the finished rig:
