Yea didnt realy go all out on this one, had the Rad already on the case from Koen, had a 939 block that I didnt use on my first WC jobbie etc etc, all i needed was a Pump and a pump top res and i was away!

Oh and people the reason for the 2 mobo's is the one on the right was my old SLI-D that I fried.. mate sold me an Ultra-D as just bored only and box, so i had all the crap to go with it so just transfered all the crap over etc :) and mounting the NB cooler I did notice a chip off the corner of it :S but doesnt appear to have killed the bored so im happy - dont worry its mounted safely and wont do that to any other corners!
