Pictures!!! The board is now setup and I'm running it while typing on it! . Will get some pics up when it is properly finshed. Ran into a few problems on the way. The AC Freezer 7 pro JUST clears the heatsinks, but the fan cant clip on. I had to mod it by trimming off the corners of the fan shroud so that they didnt hit the Mobo's heatsinks.
The IDE connection is also a fair bit lower than my old mobo, so the cable with the board wasnt long enough, I have had to re-jig the case to get it to work, but no fear I have ordered a 70cm IDE cable of ebay! (You can even get 1m ones ). When it comes through and I have fitted it and the case is all back nice and neat I;ll take some pics of the setup running.
Also, I have used AS5 this time, and tbh it isnt working very well, my temps are about 5-10*C hotter on idle than with the AC MX-2 and AS Cermaique, and yes I applied them all in the same way. Might have to get some more MX-2 or use whats left of the ceramique. Unless anyone uses any better stuff??
Anyway let me know what you think about the above, on to the pics!!!
