Putting this in to replace my Gene V



First layer of carbon is on and now the painful cutting

Motherboard being put in and starting to like it





Right I am actually quite happy with the outcome. My next build will be watercooling but thats next when I have my own with a garage.



Looks so much better with 3 fans



Need to sort out the bright red light but might just stick in my second 7970 this week and go crossfire.



And here is m setup. Mini Mac, My Nas box (which I am absolutely loving with my the itunes and media playing. Then my new build which is so damn quiet. Can hardly hear it.



Being called a brand s**t but why change when you have product that has never let you down and top of it look good

Very nice build kovoet, Good job!
Did you find going from 2x140's to 3x120's made any difference to the amount of air going to your gpu? Better or worse?

I tried both and found about 3 degrees cooler on the graphics card and 2 degrees cooler on the motherboard. I was worried about the noise but these corsair fans are fairly quiet.

Thanks! I couldn't decide which way to go before but i'll more than likely switch to the 3x120's. Any reduction in temps i can get from my gpu's is a bonus lol.
