Nice. But what happened to cable management. lol. I wish I had have kept some old P4's and stuff I had laying around. i would make up silent a machine for ? Something!

P.S I like the Brushed Aluminium Case look. My gigabyte Poseidon is this. However Its a pain to clean the dust off of unless you use the Supplied cloth. Thanks Gigabyte (I actually got 2 in my box)

Those HFX are sweet as, but soooooooo expensive. i wanted to try and show you don't need a special case to passively cool, you just need a big one :-p

And you can do it with even full sized ATX boards if it tickles your fancy! It is a nice case that silverstone have made here though, i'd like to feature it in some more build articles as its a joy to work with!

I've actually managed to cram a water cooling setup inside it too with a full sized psu too! you loose your optical drive bay to the resivoir but who needs optical media these days anyway :-p

I like your setup very much! Could you give us a ballpark estimate as to how much it might cost to put together such a system?

Thanks in advance
