    Dad picked up my cooling (Yate, Arctic Fans, Lights, Ninja, adapters etc..) and my PC-7B Plus II!

    Talk about pure hotness?

    Interesting note: On my box it says Lian-Li PC-7 Plus not Plus II but I have the 2 120MM fans and the 80MM blowhole so it's all good

    I don't have Vista installed so I can't offer much help there. What do you think of the case though?

    not really a benchmarker but year alrite u doin it with the free version of 3Dmark? Let's compare @ stock though because I won't OC it for a lil bit.
    I'd say @ stock:

    My GFX > Yours
    E6600=E6600
    Your RAM beats mine
    My motherboard is faster
    My cooling is better (doesn't matter since we @ stock)
    Your HD may be a lil faster since it's smaller?
    My Drive will be same prolly
    My case much quieter than yours lol(Doesn't your case use 4x80MM)

    well the "xXx" version dosen't really count as stocked since it's already OC'd.

    How does a motherboard have to with anything?? LOL

    your case wont be "much" quieter because I have replaced all the fans with around 16dba blue led fans. very quiet.

    Computer built!

    Wow working with a Lian-Li was such a treat! It was so easy from removing front panel, to routing cables! So sexy man. I don't think I can ever go to anything else now.

    The system is nice and running smooth. Just installing drivers

    Problems that happened:
    The stupid Scythe Ninja pins sucked major ass. One got bent, fixed it but it cut me like a mofo.
    I accidentally cracked a cathode. Whoops. But it doesn't matter, 1 cathode gives me more of the blood red effect

    All pics taken! This PC is sexy. Might need to work on cables abit but the night pictures with the red cathode are so nice! Pictures later tomorrow (6/15)

    Thanks guys


    Btw this PC is SILENT <3
