    WTF? You are recommending an analogue connection over digital? :confused:

    I found that whilst HDMI is a digital signal - the really cheap cables don't seem to handle high res very well. It may be worth getting a slightly better quality cable.

    i think i see some chicks on the dancefloor, bottom level....


    They used to sell the black aluminium wheels at pc case gear, that would have finished it nicely.

    converge, love the case and the awesome job, but the sleeving ruins it, it makes it look messy and untidy.
    A single black sleeve over those cables would look way way better IMO.

    I disagree. It carries the blue theme from the mobo and RAM well. Alba have you posted pics of yours? Keen to see it.
