Let the building begin. I got my case last night. Even though all the computer parts haven’t arrived (or even been ordered, in some cases), I started connecting stuff together, just to have something to do. Here’s what it looks like so far…
(The cables and bags on the bottom are just temporary storage.)
The case looks pretty cool…until I got fingerprints all over it. The power supply appears heavy enough to weight down the top of the case, so screwing the side panel can sometimes be awkward. — And is its fan supposed to be at the top?
I also put the motherboard in so quickly I forgot to put the back panel on (so I had to put the motherboard on again). The DPS2 is in, the RAM is in, one hard drive is in, and I also hooked up USB, IEEE1394, and the LED and buttons on the front of the case.
Estimated time of completion is still early July, since I’ll probably need two more paychecks to fund the remaining ingredients.
