Key Features: Intel CPU NVIDIA VGA
System Specs: i5Core 2500K/ AsusP8Z68-V Pro/ AsusENGTX560 OC/ Antec 750w TruePower/ 2 Kingston HyperX 120G SSDs/ 8G Corsair XMS3/ CoolerMaster 212Evo/ Lots of fans/ Re used same case Antec Sonata III 500
Performed Mods: Not much, Noctua fans work great for quiet time and 2 3Speed Antec fans add what what I need for OC gaming.Used rubber grommets and cut chopsticks to lenght and saved space for 2 3.5 HDDs for storage above fan.Had to remove case door latch to fit 140mm fan.Taped paper over hole and used a thumbscrew for new latch.Mobo has no floppy so ssds fit right there and its easy to get at.
Average temps, 50 c Gpu, 30 c Cpu, 30 c Mobo. Can be loud when GAMING but I dont hear it.Couldn't part with my old case,third build in it and with enough fans, it can handle the heat. Thanks for looking.

I voted 7/10 because:

I think it's a nice powerful little machine and people need to stop trolling with the voting around here.

good job on the hardware aspect of it. Nothing to really complain about there. You seem to like the Noctua fans Thats cool! Noctua looks good with brown mainboard trey and inside case walls with rainbow wiring sleeves with colors of yellow, orange,a tiny bit of lime with amber type lights also.
