I have literally never owned a digicam in my life :P Nor does my phone have a camera that would do it any form of justice. Anyways, all you would see is the inside. No windows on a sonata 3 (Although I have heard you can get custom case sides for it. Defeats the point for a silenced case though...).
Made sure everything was tidied and wrapped well though however.
Just benched it. Old spec was a Phenom X3, 3870HD, 6gb RAM (Built it October 2008). Guess what? It's between 2 and 3 times faster depending on game. SWTOR PVP is now about 50-60fps but it was 20-30 before for example.
Get a throw-away camera, take pictures, get them developed and scan them in then
24 inch is the biggest u would suggest? Dude im playing on a 96 inch screen behind a 720p LED projector..and ill never go back!!! HAHA
I've played Xbox 360 on a HD projector (that is 1920x1080) on a 100" projector canvas. The picture becomes so blurry and/or pixelated that it seriously strains your eyes unless you are more than a few meters away. I'd pick a 27" 1440p monitor any day, even if they were priced equally and I had the space. The only reason to fo 100" is if you have the resolution to support it; I'd say 4K minimum.

well LED projectors have only been on the market for about 2 yrs..the old style projectors..the lamp LCD projectors dont have nearly as good of quality as the LED ones.Theres practically no glare..and i can even turn on the lights in my room and see pretty dam well..i agree though..lamp projectors werent that great.ive had both..and my LED projector doesnt blur..and the quality is the same as an led or lcd tv.I was impressed how much better the led ones are from the lamp projectors

Hey all. If you want a bigger chance for in-depth discussions about pixeldensities, you are free to make a whole thread about it.
Still no CPU in it since well I plan on an Ivy (i5 3450S/3550S) and it's not released. Everything else is in there. Gonna be hard to actually mount the CPU cooler and fasten screws etc without deassembling the entire thing I think. xD Well the back plate is on at least so maybe...

Gave me 7.8 for memory and 7.9 for everything else though even if it's not a great indicator of performance.

Looks good NWN, I'm happy it all went well
Man that's looking sweet!
Later you are getting a gpu waterblock too though? That's basicaly the only part at the moment which doesn't fit the colour scheme :P And where's that pump/res combo going to go?
I'd might personally use one 45° fitting from the radiator to the CPU at the begin of the hose. Would make it look tighter and less "hangy". Although suppose it fits somewhat as there's that long tube running arcross the system depending on where you tape the pump .
Anyway :P Top notch and extremelly inspiring!
The pump/res is staying where it's at. It is held in place by industrial strength velcro, so it isn't going anywhere.
I'm not sure if I'll add a GPU waterblock or not, I may, eventually, but there's no plan to as of right now. I may have a pinstriper paint those letters white though, so they match the color scheme. The only upgrade that I have in mind, as of right now, is adding another Vertex 3.
