Just built my first WC rig using a windtunnel design

Got this up and running a couple fo days ago and thought i'd post a few pics of it. It's based on a wetandchillychips kit (yeah i know it's a kit but i saved a lot of money buying it second hand) like the one OPP reviewed not too long ago.

The gpu block is actually a northbridge block that i got given free and modded so that it'd fit on my 9800 (didn't wanna remove the shim).

you can makout the windtunnel on the right, basically the air flows straight in there from outside the case and then back out the case again so that air @ ambient is entering and the hot exhaust air doesnt enter into the case.

Havn't posted any temps cuz it needs some finetuning before it's working at it's best. had a quick play overclocking the 9800 and it's running ~460 core @ 1.85v artifact free (atitool) but i think i can improve on that.
