Here's mine. It is silent aside from the damn board squealing. Pretty much everything I can cool with water is cooled with water. SB, CPU, NB, PWM and GPU. I got tired of having fans and a pump buzzing away.





Notice the Ethernet drop I put in and how my SPDIF connects to the same plate with BNC and travels through the floor to the receiver on the other side of the room .









And let's not forget how the HDD's hang from bicycle tire tubes.

I hacked apart an old Antec PSU, cut the 24 pin connector into an 8 pin connector, and taped the wires up with scotch tape to ghetto rig my computer into working while I was waiting for an 8 pin extender. I'll get pics up when I get home in the next couple days.

Closest things I've got ATM are pics of my old suicide run setup:



The makings of a bong cooler for my E6300:



And my cooling device for my Macbook's power brick during the summer:

Heh, it doesn't fit in any case, that's why i'm not using it right now. It extends about an inch below the bottom end of an ATX board. If I bend it in, It doesn't clear the PCI slots, just barely.

Kudos to whoever can guess what card it is, should be fairly easy with the dual molex connectors.

Meh, I never got around to using it. I was going to use two Arctic Cooling silencer backplates (Like the one on top) and 4 screwed but I never got around to it. Zip ties held it on fairly well though.

E74 failed xbox:





I remounted the GPU and CPU heatsink after clearing away the generic paste, applying some AS5 and modding the x-clamp.

I then modded a 120mm fan to the pin layout of the 360's 3pin header, put it directly over the heatpipe heatsink of the GPU and over the CPU.



This in turn = a fixed xbox:



COD4 stable for an hour, no more time for testing, I'm too tired

Lastly... So many RROD'd xboxes I need to fix that are out of warranty:
