Well, we will answer these questions for you and provide you with a guide on what is required if you want to change them. Maybe you want your mouse to match with your case lighting? This is a somewhat risky mod but if done properly, it'll have you saying..."Red is Dead!"

        overrated is right, their operating voltage is a lot higher than a red led and they draw a lot more current for the same brightness...I wonder how long the other components in his mouse and/or usb controller last

              Paddy,

              While that case does look cool today, I garrentee that it will be the worst computer that poor guy is going to have.

              1) The hard drive mod. I give the drive a month before it fails, unless the drive was modded in a true clean room environment. (which I doubt)

              2) The acrylic case. Can you say static? I thought you could

              3) The liquid cooling. Liquid cooling is a pain in the rear end in terms of maintainence.

              4) Enermax power supply. Hardly quality equipment there

              5) The kenwood CD-ROM drive. Fast, but has the tendancy to die, and it really doesn't have a chance in hell of reading CD-R's

              6) Iwill motherboard. As in "I will blow my caps all over you nice expensive AMD MP cpu's "

              7) The SB live card. Doesn't this have fairly severe problems under W2K and XP SMP.

              Poor, poor, dumb guy
