System Specs:
» Coolermaster Cavalier-1
» Intel E6420 @ 3.2GHz
» HSF Scythe Ninja Plus Rev.A
» XFX 7600GT + Arctic Cooling S2 @ [650/820]
» Abit IP35-e
» 2GB G.skill DDR2-800 + 2GB Ballistix Tracers DDR2-800
» Corsair HX520
» WD 500AAKS SE16 500GB SATA
» LG 18X DVD-RW SATA Drive
Performed Mods:
Added Kama Bay Intake, Swapped out the 80mm front intake fan for a 120mm, Painted interior semi-flat black & front bezel (incl. drives) gunmetal, suspended hard drive after removing the hdd cage. And of course some cable management.
I aimed for a cool and quiet performer, and at 3.2GHz, this thing runs at around 35 idle/55~ load. It's barely audible. The last update I'll perform to this rig is a move to something like an 8800GT(S) and then replace some of the dying case fans with some newer ones like some 500/800RPM Slipstreams.

Nice, you on SPCP? That looks exactly like what SPCP users would build.

If you mean SPCR. Then yes, I frequent there a lot, rarely post, I don't even remember if I have an account on their forums.
I got most of my ideas for junk to do from there.
Nice setup, good cables. Bad video card though. 7/10 from me.
by: JC316;583175LoL harsh on the video card. It's a beast for what it is, but it still is just a budget card, I'll probably buy a 8800GT or something if I can find a decent price within the next week or so... maybe even tomorrow morning.

10/10 from where did you get that DRAGOn (on the wall could you take a photo i really want to see it and would like one in my room too :)
by: DiabloAzul126;583119Yeah my bad, I'd really recommend you install a scythe slipstream rear outake... without that airflow, your Accelero...

I bought a Few Slip Streams (2x 1200RPM and 1x 800RPM), also swapped in an 8800GT with an Accelero S1 (800RPM fan attached to the S1)
I'll eventually post new pics I guess, but all in all, it looks basically the same.
