So.....The Mrs. see this Photo and I just happened to "win" a Bitfenix Prodigy from CaseModContest..........well, ya'll can figure out who, what and where.........Always doing my best to keep the Queen happy (keeps me bowhunting and computer building without tension @ home).......I said, "Hey HoneyBunns, time for a new rig, My Love!"..........

After much and many changes and ideas, the components were finalized......


CASE..............Bitfenix Prodigy Artic White
MOBO.............ASRock A75M-ITX
APU................AMD A8-3850
GPU................Sapphire Radeon HD 6670
PSU................CoolerMaster 650W
SSD................Kingston SSDNow 300 V+ 120GB
HDD................Wester Digital Blue 1TB
RAM................Kingston HyperX Blue 1600 8GB (2x4gb)
DVD................LG Super Multi DVD
APU Cooling......Corsair H60 w SP120 fan
Fans................NZXT FZ200 & FZ 120 ...Blue LEDs
Lighting............Logisys Cold Cathode Blue


As far as theme goes........I wanted to try a "Tiffany's Box" design, however....the case layout made it real difficult to place and see the bows and ribbons, so I opted for just the Tiffany Blue and White colors..........




Statered with the PSU Mod.........always have to sleeve........used LutrOo paracord and connectors.........

NOT BAD....


http://i384.photobucket.com/albums/oo289/Trak186/Mrs%20Ts%20Prodigy/DSCN1444_zps6cbd7ee0.jpg


had to "extend" the cut out to allow for the sleeving on the back of the PSU.

:Smile:SHWEEEEETTTTTT!!!!:shocked:

Check out these guys on YT building a gaming-pc using the red Prodigy chassis....(manly-men, heh? LOL!...check out the black/white professional photo of the bearded guy hanging on the wall behind him! Hahahaha! I guess that's supposed to be him, right? His "dangerous" side?! :laughing: It reminds me of a burger commercial, where the burger you see advertised is NOTHING like the real thing!)lol
But I have to admit, they appear to know their stuff! I should hire them to build me one. I'm brain-dead when it comes to the intricacies of computers. I mean, I can change-out simple things, like hard-drives, graphics-cards, DVD players, memory....But I can't see me trying to build a computer from scratch! I'd surely set my house on fire by hooking something up WRONG!:laughing:

Soooooooooooo........

This was the Color Theme....Tiffany Blue/White, that I was going for........the bows/ribbons would have looked kool, but try as I may, they just didn't work to my eye with the "handles" of the Prodigy........

Can't wait to see the pics of the work mate. I wish I were half-decent at doing what you do, and that I had a little extra dough to spend. I'd love to get rid of my HP Pavilion factory setup (well, my graphics card and power pack are custom-added by me though) and build a killer machine from scratch.
