As i said, i will be posting pics. And here they are, compliments of Nimby the server bitch :angel: :





you'll notice the area without dust? yeah thats the fan supports of the bottom of the measly 60mm fan were. and no air got thru that. What amazes me is that i was able to play UT2K4 for hours upon hours at a time with no problem... i go to play a game trailer in quicktime and the damn thing shuts down. Hmm.. well my newly installed thermalright ALX-800 and the Vantec Tornado i just ordered should change some of that.

If your gonna go with intel, also make sure your not getting a Intel processor with a Prescott core, they are cheaper, but thats because they are prone to overheating, not a good thing to have in a gaming case.

cuz i dont want to pay for another card when i already have my 6800gt. I always by a new grfx card every other family. mainly to save cash (of which i have little of) and nvidia's even numbered families tend to do better off.
