wow, all the same parts in 1/3 the space. I see not needing all the room of your old case, but man, you really went extreme in the other direction:roll:

ya, i've built rigs in cases of all shapes and sizes. Converted a dead KLH receiver into an HTPC case last year (it was for fun), also had a mATX setup in a SUGO sg02 about this time last year.

I assume you get better temps with the rads fans blowing into the case and allowing the the top fan to pull out the heat?

Exactly. I do get extremely good temps with that case setup. Makes complete sense and it does work. Its a good cooler, but i might get some noctue ND-14 or something equivalent, just for fun. But i hate the light tinish color of the heat sink metal, if they nickel-plated it and i grabed two nice fans with black trims and sleeved it would look perfect!

figured with that big fan up top it would do OK the way you had it. The D14 is a very nice cooler, but I think Im gonna opt to go back to water with this 860.

RM has the same exact case as you. He loves it besides the fact if you do crossfire, you gotta drill a fan hole, at top.. Gets really toasty.

Looking good Thrackan! :toast:

First off Thanks;)

Secondly, yes they do cause a slight issue. Well not really, but yes. If you look closely the front fan is sitting about 1/2" - 3/4" higher than normal, but with the "lock over" style fan mounts, you just move em up and lock it in there;) Raising the front fan didn't make 1 degree of difference.

Cool :)

I have to RMA my current Ram and need some replacements in between and was worried moving the fan would affect temps.

But since it dosen't affect temps... :toast:

Thanks mate.

Finally, my first post to this thread

Been meaning to post here ever since DM posted this thread. So, without further ado, I've attached some pics to share with all of you.

I basically bought the same motherboard I had already, a GA-MA-790X-UD4P, and went up to a Phenom II 955 using a Corsair H50 for cooling. I'll be using my old parts for another build once I'm satisfied that everything is running stable since this is my first encounter with any kind of water-cooling kit. Figured I'd start small for now and see how I like this before I decide to go full crazy with the water stuff. ^_^

Hey man, that's a pretty crowded case but you did a heck of a job keeping everything organized and tidy. Good job, love the red/black you got going with the card/PSU :toast:

After much faffing I finished my parents rig.

People remember that OEM heatpipe cooler I posted up a few pages back?

Well temps to seem to be very impressive thus far, although only in bios.

Stock everything was nice and cool stopped around 19-20 c ( just in bios screen)

So thought what the hell! went to the over-clocking options and changed cpu to 4ghz (2/6 stock I think) and restarted.

I was surprised by success at first ha ha then in Bios temperatures levelled out at 26 c.

Pretty damn good I think.

Where does the power cable from the wall plug connect? I see the PSU with the rear facing towards the front of the case, and I'm left a little confused where the cable connects. :confused:

From the front and then fed around the back. ITs been a while since I owned that case... Wish I never sold it... Awesome case.

Was going to get a PC-7 but the new ones looks horrible.

Under the rear intake fan :)

Honestly, I have to say I've never seen such quality in a case before. Everything has been well thought out and it all fits like a glove.
This case clearly trumps both the Cooler Master Centurion 590 and the NZXT Rogue I've had before it.

Oh and don't worry about crossfire, I've got a mATX board in there and I'm not planning to swap hardware soon except for maybe a passive CPU cooler.

here is what i am working on putting a PC in...Not sure if i want to use a PSU that blows air out the back and sucks air out the back or want to use one with a 120mm fan on the bottom(that would be drawing air from the top of the box).. I will just grab another box and try different things out

I'm still working on it. I'm going to put a removable motherboard tray in it also made from a USPS flat rate box :p but i'm going to double stack 2 boxes. Top one is going to have the mobo bottom one is going to have PSU. I am doing this to help control temps and keep the mess from the wires down as much as i can.
