Finally after saving up ive been able to build a new computer!

CM690 Case
Gigabyte UD3P
Q9650
G.Skill 4Gb 1066 @ 6-6-6-18
Sapphire 4870 512mb
Corsair 750W PSU
2x Western Digital 640Gb Cavair Black in Raid 0
Scythe "Kaze Master" Fan Controller

Build went smooth, the only hang up I had was when I had to thread my new fans, or reverse my fan for intake/exhaust. I installed 2x Yate Loon fans in the front of the CM690, adding the stock LED CM fan to the exhaust of the case. Along with added a side panel with window, added the plastic fan to intake on the bottom of the case off the old side panel. Everything run SUPER quiet, at full RPM.

HD Tune- Ran HD tune, Min Write speed was 140.3 MB\s, Max was 240.4 MB\s, and access time was 11.4 seconds.

Cable Management will get a little better once I have my TRUE and Ultra Kaze fan installed on the fan controller, so its kinda just there for now, but other than that, thats pretty much my cable management .

I zip tied the Yate Loon fan to the HD metal inserts on the outside of the panel, but still inside that mesh cover. I did pop out the middle part of the metal, but left the bigger part in there to zip tie to, forgot to snap pics though.
