cos im getting another 4890 1st then ill cool the both of them, still need to buy the motherboard blocks...

looking at a bigger case, mountain mod case or something similar
Hehe, get the ascension, will never need another case:p (Can actually put two motherboards in the duality)

Although if you only run a single optical drive in that case, the cost of all the fan grilles, fans, and 5.25" bay covers is another $100 or so(as their cases are case only, 5.25" bay covers, fans, and grilles arent included).

I used to have good cable management but after my upgrades it just kinda fell apart.

Are those two fans off to the right above the HDD floating in the air? :confused:

No, one is sitting on the hard drive and the other is mounted to what is supposed to be a 3.5" to 5.25" converter but I just turned it the other way. This one to be exact http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817984005.

I only have them there to help blow the cool air from the front towards my CPU cooler. When I unplug them my CPU temps actually goes up about 2C so it does help with airflow.

Here's my Core i7 Lanbox - fully functional and OC'able.
Micro-ATX - I designed it that way because I knew I was gonna carry it on the plane to college.

It was pretty hard to do cable management because it was so cramped... :eek:
I had to sacrifice the second drive bay just to hold all the extra cables.

Anyhow, it still has room for either another full-sized video card or another hard drive. I can't do both because they'll block each other... :(

Wow! I'm surprised you got all that stuff in there. (Yes, that's what she said)

I see a couple of PSUs on the bottom of the case, sounds like a pretty good idea actually.
Love this thread, gives you good ideas :D

I just finished assembling my new build, and still have to work on cable management. I will post pictures when done!
