Forgive my ignorance, but what is C2D.
Looks nice, my only real thought when I seen it is do you even need that fan on the CPU heatsink, with the rear case fan being so close I would guess it would be enough without the one mounted on the HS.

Hah, just noticed you have a heatsink on your X-fi card. I did that too. Did yours come with a heatsink already on it?

My XF-i came with it :D . And to answer the question about having the fan on the heatsink, YES, I need it. Addition cooling is always a plus. That is a 93CFM sunon fan that cools well.

93CFM :eek: Loud much? :D Nice looking setup, but hard to tell without the big picture. Got any other pics of your rig?

Cool looking case too. A straight-on side view of the inside would be nice. What PSU is that with the gold cable sheathing?

The PSU in the PC build is this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817154023 not the best by any means, but it was all that I could afford to buy at the time. Here is the pic you requested

Thanks for that. The HDD cage is in a spot I've never seen it before. I'd be concerned about the heat from the CPU and GPU hitting the HDDs. And why are the HDDs facing opposite directions? That's just the anal-retentive in me wondering why :D

I know why the HDDs are facing different directions. Because in that configuration the torsional forces push in opposite directions thus helping to cancel out vibrations that may be transfered to the case. :D
Seriously though, looks nice.
