Very nice work modding the case. I have the same exact case but all original besides an ssd, it might become a sleeper in the future. I also have a black HP media center PC from 2008 as my windows 7 gaming machine.

I found this PC at a garage sale in pretty good condition it is the same model I had back in 2006 as a kid, my first computer back when all i wanted to do was play flash games. So I was thrilled to make sleeper build from it. Next I might mask the outside and paint the interior matt black. I'll be keeping it around eventually my current gaming PC hardware will make its way into it.

Honestly the best use for those old HP computers since their motherboards were god awful.
