ReignsOfPower,

Did you measure temperatures before removing the yellow glue, and after applying the MX-2? I want to know if it's necessary or not, considering I read that Hardware Canucks article stating that replacing the stock yellow glue is not necessary - in their opinion of course.

Your system looks great, I saw the picture with the blue haze of the Antec Spot Cool and your LCD poster positioned neatly in the far right corner, almost a work of art actually. I would go so far as to say your build is a model system. My system will be very similar to yours when complete.

Different question, what sound card did you use? I wanted the XtremeMusic but it didn't have 2 x 5 Intel HD Audio connector for the front panel of my Antec Mini P180, so I opted for the XtremeGamer PCI card instead.
