If you have the money:

Core 2 duo E6300 and a compatible motherboard
8800GTS or 7950GS
X-FI Xtreme Music Soundcard
Better speakers.
Concider a better PSU aswell.

But you rig is nice as it is for now

Well, what do you want to do with this system? How much are you looking to spend.

I think case modding is the next step…
But what to do?
(Is the when the moderator moves my post?)

The attached pics are off a camera phone, I will take better ones later with my Digital SLR.

I don’t know how much modding you could do. If the case has stamped fan grills, you could cut those out to improve airflow along with cable routing to keep your cabling at bay.

I am going to light it up better,
and I wish I had bought the Liberty PS instead now I need to find a place for all these cables…
