Yeah, the mobo chose a silly place for the 8Pin EPS connector...oh well. The case comes with the top mounts for dual 120mmfans, and you can buy an adapter to mount RADs. http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...e%20Technology

I don't know if it has been mentioned yet but where did you purchase the foam to line the bottom of the case?

and last but not least i want to thank HWC and all you guys and gals for helping me learn so many things in a short time and just being a fantastic community !!!! I am definatly proud to call myself a member of such a KIND,KNOWLDEABLE, FUNNY, HAPPY, GROUP OF PEOPLE I HAVE EVER MET ONLINE!

Ok i know i am babbling but i mean all this from my heart and Paul you way out did ya self for me and i want you to know you have my buss. and gratatude my freind!!

This system is killer

P.S. i am gonna name it CHARLIE C. VORTEX:) LOL(charlie for short)
It's my pleasure to both of you Paul and Dave. I had parts that I didn't use any more, and I knew they'd still be good for another rig.

As for Paul and I, we managed to "exchange" a few more parts... just a rad and a few fans. I added the pump. More to come, once I receive the EK FC blocks from NCIX... and that's a G7, to compare sizes...

SKY, I got the foam from NCIX, there was a forum special on it, I think it was a ModSmart product. I lined the sidepanels as well as the top too. Helps a little.

Dashock they are blue, yes Lol.

Raverclan, all the parts used you can find for sale at NCIX or Direct Canada (they share the same stock)
