Just a little update guys... I will now include a picture of your Tempest based computer in the main post to replace the pics of mine! We need more diversity.

Requirements of the pic:

1024x768
Has your OCN username in it somewhere
Has a border

PM me with what you've got.

*sigh*

No time to do any mods. A teething 6 month old dictates my free time.

Hey guys... just wanted to share my new toy...

















I wish I could play with it a little more... but I am going to a LAN party tonight. But tomorrow I will tweak it.



EDIT:

5 minutes gave me this:

So I am putting in my order for my Temptest tomorrow, and was wondering how the stock fans were? I was considering replacing the 120's with CM R4's. Do you think this is worth it? I heard the side fan was quite loud, so will definitely be getting at least one. Thanks.

Great looking cases by the way everyone, can't wait to join the club!

its not so much that the fans are loud. the top 140's do not push air period. that doesnt bother me as much. technically the r4's are quieter but with all the air resistance you will hear "whoooshh" which might annoy some people. others dont mind. my computer is in my bedroom so i opted for a subtle led and thats why i have 2 in the front, 1 on the back, but i replaced the side fan with a scythe 1500rpm fan which is silent. atm im extremely busy but when i get a chance to get windows 7 i will rebuild my computer to see if i can get all the wires out of the way to silence my pc completely

also spend about $25 and get some grey primer and black paint to paint the inside of your case. it really makes a world of difference
