That's gonna be a sweet build

I'd spend more on the speakers though, but I'm just a wannabe audiophile

I wouldn't mess with it. Instead, I would look for a performance CPU cooler that was more aesthetically pleasing if that is what you are looking for.

Thats the ticket. Just what can be seen. This will not effect the temps to any degree lol.

Can you close the flash and let the exposure go for a touch longer? That would really make those Xiggy's pop.

Yes, I have to dig out my tripod, will in a bit.

So the whole reason I added a 2nd radiator was to do this. Stable:

Heck my temps read higher than most AMD's so I'm happy.

10c above ambient sound about right. You see too many AMD's that are running at or below ambient and that's imposhible!!!

I really need to do one.. making up that "htpc" that I had for a short time, made me really love having amd again.

Glad to see even that chip can make it sweet.

Yup. My 1090T is running at 15c as I type this. Only problem is my house is currently 23c (73f). The temp sensors on these new hexa-cores suck. Im going to guess its really about 25c.

I started to read your post and was going to say white, but then I realized you already did

I think a soft white light behind it would be cool, nothing over-powering though, just enough to illuminate it. Maybe an under-powered cathode with a diffuser on it, placed behind or underneath the res? Just a little something to give it a nice soft glow
