What's wrong with having a modded PSU? It was only a suggestion. Sheesh, you guys are such pricks I don't think I'll ever tell the full specs of my system here, cause you guys would have a lot to say about it.System Specs:

Excuse me? I've got nothing against a modded PSU, as I said, it adds 0.2 inches.
However, as I think someone else noted, its $125! Sheesh!Meet Jasmine.

The coolness is not only derived by the way the case looks, but by the effort and commitment the owner puts into it. Ie. The most difficult and more skill required to perform a mod, the more cool it is. (as long as it is astheticly good too)80% of people think I should be in a Mental Institute

Its just that pre-modded parts are expensive, yet don't really scream "cool" as much as doing it yourself does.80% of people think I should be in a Mental Institute

But when you mod it yourself (and your successful of course) than you feel real proud of what you've done.Titanium is the new bling!

Modded? Hardly. It performs no useful function, it is merely aesthetic. The correct term is <B>riced</B>.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.
