This rig is nearly noiseless when idle, and under load, all case fans automatically increase RPM to keep the temperature at whatever I request (set in bios).

That is a well thought out clean pc looks sleek for a common case built to stand out from the rest. You should be proud of your work I wish the crashmaster was that clean on the inside!
Great job 9/10

The ram does have heatspreaders and this PSU is rated at the actual wattage, not a random number that the manufacturer picks. Look up seasonic sometime, they're like #2 in PSU's.

Well, since you built a nice clean rig and the "1" guy voted (actually there are a few), I will have to counter act with a 10 to be fair. There are always the weak minded cowards who hide behind anonymity since they do not have the gnads to fess up that they are simply jealous. They should simply take away the anonymous vote if you vote 3 or less. With that, you need justification, as no one anywhere deserves a "1" for their work. This is another prime example.

The system is nice and balanced without making the system looks like a southern Cali rice rocket and build a nice system wihtout going broke. Cable management is good, the case is not plastered with badges, everything matches, so it is hard not to like it.

oops, i guess i didnt look hard enough at the ram. anyway, im still sayign its a 9 becosue just becosue the psus wattage is more accurate then most means squat. only offbrand manufactorers give their psus random wattages.

I like everything except the motherboard. :P Well, I don't have any experience with Biostar's boards. Otherwise, that is a very nicely balanced system. Too many people skimp on their memory, motherboard, hard drives, etc. You have the same RAID setup as I do. Fast, aren't they?

To everyone who's complaining about his PSU, he's right. That's 430W guaranteed. The kind of PSUs you're thinking of are the kind that are "Rated at 600W", but are only 600W when they're cold and drop down to 350W once they warm up to normal operating temperatures.

I'm loving that Ultra case, too.

How do you keep it so clean and wire free?

I think most of the cables are wrapped around back. Having a good case helps too. Also, the way the hard drives are positioned.

The more cables you can route behind the motherboard mount, the better. Some of mine even run between the mount and the motherboard (the power button/led/reset/hdd/etc wires for example).

I like it. I love that motherboard (I use it myself). Only thing kinda weird is that that case is enormous, and it is housing a smaller matx board. Seems kinda strange, but you made it look good. 9/10 from me.

"NICE!!! i give you a 9. i would give you a ten but...
*ddr1 not 2"

WTF does that mean? Are you saying that ddr1 is a con?
