None, this is just a basic internet surfin and DVD burning PC, but it does have a nice blue temp monitor at the front LMAO :)
And it only cost £251 ;)
UPDATE: I had to flip the Northbridge heatsink by 180 degrees to get the AC Silencer to fit LOL
UPDATE: This system now consists of - AMD Athlon 64 4000+ skt939 (@ 2.64GHz), XFX GeFORCE 7900GS '450M' 256mb PCI-E (@ 500MHz/1400MHz),
Ive updated the pics on request of pt, as you can see I didnt have much space to work with in the small case :(
2x 512mb DDR400 Premier OCZ Dual Channel (running @ 203MHz / 1T), ASUS A8V-VM and Ive added another HDD, a Western Digital 7200rpm SATA-II. Ive also just added a COLORSit 550W 'silent' PSU, Arctic Cooling Silencer 64 Ultra and hopefully will be getting another 2x 512mb of RAM very soon ;)
UPDATE: I just sold this system for £400, minus the 7900GS, and a 7300LE added ;)

Im really pleased with it now (after going from a decent PC, well at the time, to this one) Hopefully I can add another 2x 512mb of RAM asap (coz I cant afford to sell my current RAM and get 2x 1GB sticks) and I will then be able to play BF2142 :)
Im going to have to overclock it again now Ive got a better cooler fitted ;)
by: HookeyStreetain't 1gb enough? i can play it with 1gb

i just know that i played it all the time with 1gb ;)
it must be other problem :(
I've got the same case and found that you get better cpu temp by reversing the rear 120mm fan. As it is, exhausting air, it moves air that the cpu fan needs. By reversing the fan you provide cool air to the cpu fan. But you only have the PSU fan exhausting air so case temp may rise a little unless you have a gpu HSF that exhausts.
Otherwise it's a nice neat case. I bought the windowed version with a silver front.
