It would have been a tight fit with the included fans and with all the fans I have available. Touches the heat spreaders on the Ram.

The way I have It set up now the fans pull air from inside the case up across the radiator. I then watched the corsair install video and they said that it might be better to have them pull fresh air from outside the case in. This made no sense to me as I figured the ambient case temp should be lower than the radiator but I could be wrong. There seems to be a million ways to set up airflow on these things. I'll have to try different set ups and monitor temps.

The irony of water cooling .. it's just modular air cooling.

OT: Love your color scheme, keep it up!thumb.gif

Thanks guys smile.gif

Small update. I installed the Power supply and did pretty much all of the cable management. Also It turns out the red LEDs that the mobo was showing was actually an error code doh.gif After figuring out code A6 which was SCSI detect I was able to get it to go away after trying various settings in the BIOS and making a partition on the hard drive .Apparently it didn't agree with windows XP being on there from a previous installation. tongue.gif

How's my cable management? I must get a sleeved extension for my 24pin power cable.. It's a bit of an eyesore in there.

Did a little dust filter mod too.

For what you have you did quite decent cable management wink.gif, the black/white as rock mobo really doesnt fit the black/blue theme going on, and lack of ram sticks kinda leaves it hanging there.
did you decide on the gpu btw?

Yeah it's a bit off. But with the side panel on in the dark you can barely tell. I think the flash on the phone really brings out the worst in the colors lol.

I need to decide on white or blue led strip too. I wanted white but I think blue might work better and hide the mobo color.
How about one of these?
