Nice job Krow! You plan on upgrading from stock cooling?

 

 

You should try tucking some of those wires behind the motherboard tray. :)

 

Yeah, I'm never done with this. I just temporarily fixed the airflow with tape, lol.

 

And I'm upgrading my cooling once I decide to OC, because right now my max temps are 52, which is fine by me.

Nice job taco!! lol Hey does the fact that the power connectors are on the front of the video card make it hard for you to do wire management? I have a 9800GTX and I hate that design cause my PCI-E cables are not long enough for it to reach. Yeah they do reach but their exposed.

Reach is not a problem but i had to tape the wires to the back of the MOBO tray to keep them from being pulled toward the GPU

. lighting, bad flash and high blood pressure make for shaky pics...out of 80 I took, these were the semi-good/good ones..I even scaled these because most of them weren't that thrilling either.. :( The macro's were pretty good tho'..maybe I should just stick to that and leave the camera in auto when I want to do casual stuff. :lol:

What? Never......

 

Actually with watercooling your adding on alot more fans cause of the radiator. The goal of watercooling is to get better temps not less noise.
