Overall I am happy with the clean look of this system I spent about 10-12 hours on this build due to the fact that I shortened every cable to legnth including PSU cables. Only think I can complain about is the fact that I am going to have to figure out a way to install more hard drives as this case with the super long GTX 260 installed limits me to the use of only 1 hard drive as the card blocks the rest of the expantions in the HD cage. The water cooling systems does a decent job at stock speeds (mid-upper 30's C). However I have not had the chance to OC yet. I am sure there is plenty of headroom to get a decent OC out of it when I get a chance. By no means is it a high end cooling system but it was cheap, looks good and gives me the chance to say I have a water cooled PC. Opinions welcome !!!
