Dude, gimme your money. :hissyfit::greedy::hyper:

Regarding your embedding issue. Don't paste the entire url. Just copy the part of the url after watch?v= and before the character ampersand(&). Wrap the youtube tag around it. You're done.

For example: Your first video link is www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8kAqxrg3os&list=UUTcwL6uklXJwAjXl3G5MnHw&index=15&feature=plcp.

Copy only the part given in bold and red. Wrap youtube tags around it. Then you'll have something like :

@sabya Did you consider getting Steelseries Siberia V2 instead of CM Storm Sirius? The latter is not very good for music but is awesome for gaming, while the former is more balanced.

Also, after you upload the pics on imgur, resize them to atleast 1600X1200 or even less, say, 1280X800, before linking them here. That will allow for mid to low-bandwidth users to view them easily. Just a thought. Saves time and space. :mrgreen:

Well my primary concern was gaming and the true 5.1 sold me out and somehow Siberia just vanished from my mind. The purchase day was so hiatus I could not think second time so pulled off the Sirus which was on the shelf. will consider siberia some times soon though

(@dashing.sujay also)Regarding the photographs..its my bad..will resize them and upload them again with other pictures

Pics coming next

DO comment to help me improve by technical skills of assembly and presentation

Thanks a lot everybody again

I am uploading the pictures..I have resized it as asked by the members

Pictures and video after assembly taken with Panasonic Lumix TZ-20
Picture and video before assembly taken with Galaxy S2/Note

Machine Up and Running
*i.imgur.com/Aw46r.jpg
Machine runs quietly (even at high fan speeds) and the monitor has good viewing angles. All the roar can be heard after opening the door

Mouse and Pad
*i.imgur.com/nghqn.jpg
The weight control along with dual surface of the vespula is very satisfying

Keyboard
*i.imgur.com/zxlhj.jpg
Feels quite good but will require time to get used to it

Intake Fan
*i.imgur.com/p5UCf.jpg
Custom fitted a 120mm green LED fan (90CFM) as an intake behind the empty drive bays

Side Intake with direction controller
*i.imgur.com/8zUdM.jpg
200 mm side intake..can direct the airflow as per wish..also has fancy LED

Bottom Intake
*i.imgur.com/mWST3.jpg
120 mm red led (90CFM) as another intake from the bottom beside the SMPS

Another front intake
*i.imgur.com/0OQdY.jpg
This 140 mm fan came as a exhaust. I have put this at the end of the drive bays at the backside of the green led fan to intake air

Exhaust
*i.imgur.com/oaPQu.jpg
Swapped the 140 mm with a 120 mm red led (90CFM) as exhaust

Radiator
*i.imgur.com/kLR8U.jpg
H100 radiator and exhaust fans

Pump assembly
*i.imgur.com/W0pEy.jpg
H100 inbuilt pump and controller on top pf the CPU

RAM
*i.imgur.com/mg7Ui.jpg
Cant get ot run them at 1600mhz (ticked the XMP though)..any suggestion

Needs No introduction (Radeon 7970)
*i.imgur.com/cdqM3.jpg
Running at 1125 mzh (OC'd with After burner)..BUT A LOT OF GAME HAS STARTED TO CRASH..removal of OC is of no effect and neither is driver update..Suggestions Please

Asus Monitor
*i.imgur.com/bs2p0.jpg
Looks pretty vibrant to me..HD movies looks very nice..inbuilt speakers are ok

Little bit of Designing

LED Strip

CCFL tubes

2. The Speaker Console and the wireless remote

3. The rear speaker on the walls on the back wall (check out the reflection in the mirror)
