Wow...all that stuff is packed in tight. I thought my shuttle was bad :D
 
Actually, the video card is not as close to the PSU as it looks in that picture... Having the same case myself I can say there is about 1/4" between the two. But those cards and the blower are packed in nice and tight... I hope you are planning on some extra cooling for that case. :) I have a feeling it's going to be hot.
 
CPU idles at 50c, and 6800U idles at 60c load temps are +-10c for the CPU and +-17c for the GPU.

I may pick up an NV silencer locally today and put it in there. When i installed the comp, i had already put as5 and the HSF on the proc, but i ended up taking the HSF off to fit the PSU and no re-applying AS5, maybe thats why my temps are so high on the CPU, i'll reseat the HSF with some ceramique and maybe do that NVS5 thing, we'll see how i feel when i get out of class.
 
That's hot... I was idling at 40C with my setup with the sides on the case. With the sides off and watercooling I'm doing 33-34C but I still need fans blowing in because my ram is getting uber-hot.
 
Yeah im gonna re-try overclocking very soon, need to build up the confidence :D Last time i tried my mobo wouldnt POST and CMOS wouldnt reset for about 5 hours, weird :confused:
