This is my very first build. I feel like I did an OK job, but like everything, there's room for improvement.

I'm still waiting for a few things to be delivered. (RAM, DVD-Drive, etc..)

Any suggestions for improvement?
Anything look wired incorrectly?
Any suggestions on improving case (Antec P182) airflow?
Other thoughts? :)
 
Is that the original P180 case or the revision version? I notice there is a rectangle hole above your memory.

~Edit~

My bad. I didn't read the entire post. Looks like it is the revision version.

But if you want to know something to improve airflow well don't quote me on this but it might work. When it comes to watercooling and using the a radiator it is better to "pull" the air through than rather "push" the air thought the radiator. It has to do with something how pulling air covers more surface area than pushing air. Maybe it will work for an air-cooled heatsink since a radiator is like a giant heatsink as well?
 
Sexy.

Clean the fingerprints off of the Heatsink.

Gave me a few good ideas for cleaning up wiring in my P182.

Go buy a cheap stick of RAM and start it up!
 
yes, it is the revision DTN107.

still waiting on my RAM to arrive..
i see the UPS guy down the block as i type this should be here in a few minutes :D

gonna clean up the heatsink right now.

thanks for the comments :D
