Just took some night shots with no flash. Most blurred so I stacked some DVD's up as a tripod and got some decent shots:

Lol your power cable management is dismal.

If you're going to have a window, at least make it look good.

It is a mess in there.

Seriously It was all fine and then I got the watercooling so I had to install 2 fans and a pump.

This meant I had to find 3 more power connectors which was quite hard and I just managed to do it and then added a new graphics cars which required to 6 pin power leads from 2 molexs'.

I'm going to rebuild the whole thing soon Thumbs Up

Last shot is blurred but I think it looks cool as the motherboard is in focus behind it.

Whats the overclock on the CPU needed to justify the watercooling then? Stock intel cooler is more than capable of cooling any moderately clocked intel dual/quad core.

Yeah, why the water cooling? Ive got a dual core overclocked from 2.5Ghz to 3gz with stock cooling fine.

Wow, did you have a nice wank afterwards?

I run a C2D E6750 at 3.4Ghz with a £15 arctic cooling freezer 7 pro.

You lose.

bling, and maybe its quieter

my current pc is is passive cooled with big heat sinks, no fans at all

id find it hard to go back to a noisy thing, so water cooled appeals to me even though i know nothing about it

Did your mum wire it up for you, or are you creating a birds nest in there on purpose?

I have a Q6600 running at 3.4 under water, the best part is it is nearly silent, My HDDs (4 in raid 0+1) are the loudest thing about it.
