This is my "new" comp. The first few pics taken of it. The heatsinks which are so prominently displayed are the 3 Thermalright heatsinks, the Ultra-120, the HR05-SLI, and the HR-03. The fan on the Ultra-120 is the S-Flex, and the fan on the chassis (back) is the Arctic Fan 12. The top fan is a 3 LED fan which is absolutely crap (mainly there for LEDs).



Pls comment on cable management.

Nice hardware you got there, also good job hiding the wires looks really clean and efficient.

Just a little thing which got in the way, the string on the bottom right is from my jacket. Its not in the other pic.



Also, that blue thing just on top of the SATA cables is the Tt spirit. Its a northbridge cooler, but I took it and used it to cool the I/O chip on the X1950Pro. The front wasn't hard to tidy up, its the back and top which were the problem. This case has windows everywhere...



Also, lets play a game.... spot the 3 ribbon cables I have in my computer

Thats a 256mb X1950Pro.



That heatsink, if you read the descriptions, is the Thermalright HR-03. They have revised it, so you'd be looking at buying the HR-03+ (or could be known as the rev.2).

There is a hole on the side panel right smack in the middle (80mm, would cover the bottom right corner of the Ultra-120, the HR-05SLI... around there). The Ultra-120 kinda took up all the space available, so I can't put in a fan there. I'm leaving that as it is.



Also, an intake 120mm in the front, which is visible, near the HDDs.



But yeah, you've identified one of the problems I'm having. My next case I'd mod it to have a fan blowing onto the HR-03, assuming I can fit a fan there in the first place. The current case has a spiderweb motif cut into it, so I can't mod it.
