This vid was taken at about 04:20 AM , then the CCFL's give the best effects, bass was kinda overdone, more vids to come and pics of course, 3dfx is back peoople and this time it will only remain here, getting this system back was not easy but it was damn worth it though ;)

Okay here some pics shall we, I have made some modifications this time ;)
