It's certainly a nice build for the price. Looks good

nice indeed but it can be better

cable management is the key

I know alot of cases make it difficult but it can be done. Some afternoon or evening when ya have a spare hour or 3 gtet ya some wire ties and see if ya can clean it up some. Also in a pinch the old automotive split loom can do wonders on tidying up wires. But aside from that its very nice

all parts were from ebuyer and overclockers.co.uk but since i'm from northern ireland i had to pay postage. the postage was not included in the price and i already owned the monitor as i used it as a small tv
