ugly, but fast.... the case, pump, and waterblocks have been through many builds. (at least 6) i built this e6600 (L712A) on an ASUS p5b-plus/2 gig ocz special ops/evga 8800 gts superclocked 320mb/2- 250 gb wd drives in raid 0 about 5 months ago. used all my old hardware.....its running at 3.6 ghz (4x900), i got it to clock to 3.8 but was nowhere near stable. since then i got a matrox triple head 2 go, 3-19" lcd's and a 32" hdtv lcd for monitor 4, basically for watching satelitte tv on my twinhan 1020a card,;-) and playing DIRT..... its really good for DIRT! ![]() i have the evga card clocked at 690/2000 this winter i plan on getting a thermaltake mozart TX and transplanting all my stuff in it.... im sick of this old A-Open server box.... ![]() second pic is of my highest OC.... |

Hey, it's just like where's Charley: where's the rad??? And you gotta love the side-mounted floppy drive... For a 6600, that is a very nice oc.

Just finished mine, here are my pics! P.S, just to give you an idea of how big the case is, the second rad on the left behind the fan, there is another fan between it and the case. So you are looking at fan/rad/fan on the left, all inside the case still. There are two loops in my system, a Swiftech H2O-120 compact on the cpu and a custom loop consisting of a 2x120mm swiftech rad on top, swiftech microres, swiftech pump, swiftech NB block, and a koolance full coverage block on my 2900XT. Everything fits great with not troubles! My video card clocks in at 887 core and 891 memory.

Varroa, how do you find those Noctua fans noise wise compared to the CM fans that came in the case? I'm pretty impressed with them compared to some panaflo's I have but the reviews of those Noctua's say they're awesome.

The Noctua are easily as quiet as the stock fans but push more air (and have higher static pressure). I trashed the stock fans within one week of getting this case, they really didn't do much. I just recently pulled out the bottom three HD cages and put a fan in the bottom intake to increase air flow through the case, look like it drops temps by a couple of degrees.
