    Unfortunately he doesn't bother to actually run any tests... but I wouldn't count on it doing anything for you.

    I dunno bud, that's pretty clean... way cleaner than the PSX mod. Plus it incorporates almost every major console.

    True, but its really not too sleek-looking to me.. I really dont like the way the gamecube top is on the top of the case.. and where the switches are placed.. just doesnt seem very well thought out as far as looks to me..

    True, but I think that with all the space constraints those are the only place the switches and plug-ins could be placed... as for the GC top, I liked it, but to each his own.

    The GC top is too stock. Why couldnt more of the switches be on the front drive bay panels? Oh well. I just looked at the pictures again. Thats a freaking lot of wires on the back of the mobo tray!
