Updating my post from a while back. Added a scythe mushashi cooler to my 4890 and some blue and green cathodes.

Not that routing is particularly difficult with the FT02, it's a good case
Got my 'Fractal Design Define R2' case today.
Ive ordered 5x Red 120mm LED Fans, and will be getting a new modular psu.
Sorry if images are a bit big.

Route that 4pin atx-cable behind the motherboard
Like this!
very nice and clean, what case is that?
stop posting fractals, it's starting to make the $50 shipping seem palatable

I belive its a Fractal Design Define R2
btw knaSen did you have any problem with the front panel usb headers? some people were complaining that it was incorrectly wired
From where? NCIX was stocking them a month ago.
thats good for pronz
NCIX is out of stock. Fractal is releasing the R3 soon-ish, which should hopefully address the quality issues that people have been experiencing. This case layout and design are exactly what I want, so hopefully newegg carries the R3.
i7 870 is a very wild beast to tame.
low 40's in idle, mid 80's in full blown

^^ You've changed your cooler so many times, Megahelems, H50, Zalman Reservator, etc. do you have a hole cut out behind the motherboard on the backplate?
lol yeah I do have a cut out behind the mobo. makes it so much easier to mess around with different cooling devices (I have kind of have a fetish for CPU coolers ). Probably one of the most useful "mods" for any case that doesn't have a cut out for the CPU bracket.
in the last 6 months:
Noctua NH-UP12
Corsair H50
Prolimatech Megahalems (best by a mile)
Zalman Reserator
OCZ Vendetta 2
Planning on trying out the Noctua NH-D14 and Zalman H70 within the next few months as well. Would be nice if one of them could dethrone the Mega.
Here is a pic of the cut out
not to sound like a jerk but its the H50 that's the issue.
How did you get those Drive bays like that? If they're custom do you have build pics?
