Received some Gosumodz Alliance Combs from MAINframe Customs. The items were shipped promptly and delivered on-time. These are some truly beautiful cable combs made out of a special aluminum alloy! I ordered the 24-pin, 12-pin, 8-pin and 4-pin versions in the natural color. I removed the clear plastic cable combs and these new combs will really complement the build more. They also have anodized versions in red and black. The sizes available are 4-pin, 6-pin, 8-pin, 12-pin, 14-pin, 16-pin and 24-pin.

After examining the interior of the case more thoroughly, I decided that the stock memory heatsink covers were too dull compared to all the shiny chrome around them. Here is a shot of all 8 Corsair Dominator Platinum memory sticks with the light bar upgrades in their stock finish.  That dull silver textured finish just couldn't do. After hours of sanding and prepping, it was time for chroming. Here is a shot of the stock and shined versions.  Another shot contrasting the differences.  All 8 finished pieces lined up and ready for installation.  The first one is reassembled with the blue light bar insert.  All complete and ready.

I took the case to Dreamhack Austin and entered it into the case mod contest held by CPU Magazine.
The changes were apparently just what it needed and it took 1st place.

Congrats, your mod is great.  I like Chrome Dominator Platinum. But mine will look better default with Hybrid graphic card.
