I was gonna do a full Glass cover ,but with everything that was gonna be installed to desk top i could only really have done a wood and glass top .But for now its all good as i dont have ugly towers laying around ,believe me ive had alot of towers ,last pc had two Thermaltake Motart TX cases side by side ,i got fed up with it ,i also now get the benefit of having as much upgrade room as i will ever need ,also have the cool breeze cooling the room now and also if i wanna fit anything else into the desk ,i lift up the top and get on with it ... thankyou for commenting on it .

I got this error too but now I can see 2 of the pics.

It seems like you have been very patient while doing this, a lot of work to do there.

Very nice. I do love it when I see woodwork and pc's come together. Any chance you could link full size pics as opposed to firefox screenies? Would like a closer look.

What other hardware you got in there?

I don't suppose you have better pictures than a screenshot of your browser window? :p:

Haha you had the same space problem as me :)
I started with a dual stacker setup too.
Now i went to this solution :D

ATI HIS 4870 X2

Working out fine ,although i have been having issues with the onboard intel pro nic ,keep getting bluescreens tcpip.sys errors and elq faults too ,have googled this fault and seems alot of others with the same board are getting the same faults too .
