Extreme Computer This 3-window computer has everything. With all the windows, hiding cables is difficult.

First version of this system. The motherboard is silver. Too bad the drives are not silver.


As nice looking of a board this SOYO is, its not worth the $250 price. It comes with some of the most features
any motherboard had at that time. Today's $80 Gigabyte boards have more! This board had many design
defects such as not able to line up with a $200+ case and erratic behavior.


Built with a much better MSI motherboard. With 8/9 drives installed - a lot of cabling was required along with
the four cooling fans. 3 out of 4 cards had wiring or cables.


Lit up!. This side is blue, the other is red.


Without the cover on, notice how much brighter the table surface is! You can see the blue light bar.


The right side of the case. A nice deep red. It looked better in real life, really cool to see object have both
blue and red color falling on them. The problem with 3-windows cases is that it requires a LOT more work
to hide the cabling. It took many hours just to cable this chassis.


Close up of the insides. Notice the red on some of the tubes. The CPU cooling fan itself is not lighted up.
Each of the round IDE cables were $14~20 each, depending on length..


How it looks with the flash. More of the cables are visible.


Examples of cable routing. Noticed how they are looped around the fans as well as each other.


An example of hiding some of the wiring. These are not viewable with the case covers on.


This particular case uses a motherboard tray (rare) which has its PROs and CONs. More cons unless you use
your computer outside the case frequently for testing and changing hardware.
Otherwise, to work on the computer, you must unhook everything.


Packed for transport.
