I was too embarassed to post my work station pic as I just shoved all my top quality parts (except for my flippin graphics card...) into, essentially, an office desktop.
It looked pretty much like that
BUT!
I went on another shopping spree and bought new case (Cooler Master HAF XM) and CPU heat sink (Cooler Master S524<- almost out of random'ness but I think it was worth it).
Since it was late at night when I came back from work, with these parts dragged all the way from another city (well in HK standard, not US standard distance) on a public transport, I was pretty much dead when I reached home, therefore I made a LOT of mistakes when transplanting my parts from old case to new case, and putting on a new heat sink (well this part went pretty smooth compared to the transplant...).
The thing runs, but I swapped reset and power switch jumper, and realized half of the fans are not connected properly...
ANYWAY, at least nothing is broken, so thats a relief. LoL
The thing is pretty massive (despite not purchasing HAF X) and does not fit properly on a platform that I usually put my desktop (aka balcony next to my bed. LoL), so its on a diagonal position.
I will have to further work on it tonight to properly assemble once more (possibly I'm going to buy new power supply which is modular... darn tangles and USELESS extra power lines... DARN ME! STOP BUYING STUFF!!!).
After completing I went straight to bed, so I did not take any picture at night, so I took a picture in the morning with sun shining in my room (horrible lighting situation for taking a pic...), and does not even show what kind of view I have from my room, but here it is.
