New stuff in it, and fixed some of my wire management etc, new monitor etc etc.
I added a vantec PCI slot fan to blow some air up toward everything, the case is extremely cool now![]()

what kinda temps are you getting with that ac cooler/ slot fan combo?
(i have the same card and was looking for a cheap backup air cooler)
I idle at 32C most all the time, with the slot cooler its down to 30C however the one reason I wanted it was to move the hot air it blows toward the mobo up and away into the 80mm so it stays cool in the case etc etc.
Works like a charm for how much it cost, would recommend it if you have a need to blow hot/cold air up from bottom of case due to video cards or HDDs etc.
That accelero never goes about 60C even with things like 3d06 maxed out.
Hey Chaos... thinking about getting that case and the Enzotech. How close is the fan to the window and does it have enough room for airflow? And how did you get the window?
ChaosMinionX that rig looks absolutely awesome! Well done!

I'm not like you - I won't Overclock the toaster until it can cook a whole Turkey in 15 Seconds
Its a dull roarbut I can put up with it since I usually have headphones on since I play games alot. I can turn it down to be super quiet too its all on fan controllers and the fans have good airflow to them even at low. I cant hear it from another room, and in the room it doesnt interfere with TV or anything so Id say its acceptable

Heres the front of my case.

And dont mind the LCD, the NB temp isnt actually NB temp.

I love mine, my only regret is that I didnt have 2 free 5.25" for the larger screen.
The program it comes with lets you create as many display slides you want and time them to stay up for a certain amount of time, run once (i use this to display a custom graphic with computer name) its a really great piece of hardware.
my aircooled rig...

The LCD Panel looks great![]()
But the Fan Grill on top of your CPU Cooler looks a bit crappy. Remove it!
here is another pic of my system

It is a Lian Li PC7-SE-S. I put the HDD cage in this postiion to get a better wire managment. There is no front Fan in my case.. I removed it.
It is right that it will kill the air flow of the 120mm front fan if you put the cage in this non standard position
