Ok my new NZXT Tempest 410 arrived! I got it all put together but ran into some problems with the power switch. I fixed it in no time and shes running good! I took my time and did the best cable management I could have done. It is by far the best looking case I have ever owned. I still have not installed the cathodes but they will be next

Swiftech h220-20X Edge all in one liquid cooling setup. Pump and reservoir are built into the radiator. I'm running at 23c. artic silver 5 compound. Very easy to install, and preforms well. Price is a little steep, but I got mine for a great deal.

I know this is not a PC nor is it mine, it was a machine I was upgrading for a customer and this is the first time I've seen a Mac Pro's insides and I was amazed how freaking clean it was! It only had one cable standing out which was the PCIE connector to the GPU, hands down the cleanest and so far greatest tool-less case design I've seen oh and the graphics card was actually facing upright.
Specs: 2x Intel Xeon dual X5650 8x 4GB 1333mhz RAM 1x ATI 5770 2x WD 2TB Enterprise Everything else was integrated onto the motherboard which oddly splits into two parts, one part being secured onto the panel the other part which is conjoined by some IDE connection looking thing is a pull out tray to upgrade the CPU and RAM. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() OK now back to PCs, something to wash your eyes out with, my WC setup

At my school, my Computer Tech/Networking class(Class for Seniors and Juniors, ROP Class), we are working on this. I know that we're going to build some project with an Antec 300 case, a AMD M4 series mobo, 500gb hdd(Going to install Windows 7 in it), and an AMD Athlon x2 @ 3.0ghz, 4gb DDR3 1333mhz and an Antec 380w PSU.
I only have 1 picture of the Antec 300 case. Sorry for the shi**y camera phone quality. 3.2 mega pixel.

Nope, there's a fan in one end inside the fins.

Plus from my experience it doesn't make that much of a difference. Also it's bottom mounted.... Heat rises. If it were on the top you would be correct. I have had PSU's flipped either Direction.... In some cases I have found it to help this way. In this case I am doing it because I liked the look of the top of the PSU |
