savillmnice what cooling u got?
Just air cooling from the Thermaltake case, but have a Thermaltake Golden Orb II on the CPU, it sits about 45 under load, ie my son gaming for 4 - 5 hours at a time, so im happy with it, the chipset stays about 25 - 30. What looks like piping is actually the shielded cables on the OCZ power supply - here s a video review of itwww.3dgameman.com/content/view/193/43/

Until August, this was a Athlon 220+, so there wasnt much point in buying a higher powered card. I ll get something faster at some stage, but for what im running - Half-Life2, counter-strike, Quake 4, etc., it does the job at hand quiet well.

No, i dont think i ll put in the bigger fan. Ive plenty of cooling at the moment, and also i like to have a balance between cooling and noise levels, as this machine is in the living room.

I like the case, and the overall look is good too. imo 8\10. i notice some folk have been unduely stingy though so I gave it a 10 to help make up for that ;)

Thank you very much. I noticed someone gave me a 1/10 for some strange reason. Id love to hear the logic behind this, as it makes no sense to me.
