yea.... i wish i had a Q6600 so i can figure out the limits of my cooling.....

this Scythe Ninja Copper is real nice and keeps my e6550 @ 3.5GHz at near room temperature passively pretty much, not a difficult feat for the top end coolers of today but its nice.... im just worried that it wont run a Quad @ 3.2GHz very easily even with a fan...

Looking good ChaosMinionX, but your case case is starting to look loaded to the balls now.

Where are your waterlines to the radiator located?

I think it is out the top/back just above the PSU. Makes sense as he wouldn't have to actually cut the case at all

Also what is that expansion card just above your Prelude?

OK, now the real question, why would you keep the stock soundcard if you had a Prelude?

Reason is I use speakers with the Prelude, and run my Sennheiser PC166's from the SupremeFXII since I am in Ventrilo alot, I can play music, and still hear things clearly overthe headset.



Yep funny how I made a Stacker look "small", and yes the res go right up above the PSU, I only had to cut the metal/plastic grate on the back case handle to pass the 2 lines.
