I think you should get an EvoStream PSU... rated at 55dB. From the far side of a gaelic pitch. Two counties away
Then come back here and call us a bunch of girls while we try to keep straight faces watching all the blood gushing out of your ears!

lol Effluo, that's because you're using the wrong components.
me oul HAF can be the same, particularly if there's a window open you can literally feel the breeze going to the PC. But sure all i do then is just start my i7 doing some FFTs and it turns into a heater.

He went with a non-standard shape and did it damn well. Ergo, it looks "factory" :P
Only reason to attach the plexi to the inside is if you don't have the tools or skills to make it look 1337 in its own right; if its a quality job it'll look factory regardless of how you attach it

V Nice work Guys
I myself and building a new Rig here in a couple of weeks based off a CM Storm Scout case, though I am considering ripping out the LED fans and replacing them with Good Fans :P
Might get some White LEDs or Tubes for the inside, as I see way too many Red/Black and Blue/Black cases nowadays, and after seeing how cool the Xigmatek Dark Knight looks with its white LED, I am sold on the White/Black Combo 0 -

Jealous of all the new fangled builds around. Keep getting tempted to upgrade but there's absolutely zero reason...everything I play runs perfectly fine at high-max settings.
At the moment..still the Armour Case. E8600@4Ghz, 4Gb Ram, 1Gb 4890 Vapor X, P5ND 750i, 750w PC P&C Silencer PSU...
If I could choose one upgrade, it'd be case. I really hate it.
Oh...and I need a fan controller big time. At the moment it makes me sad to admit yes, all 4 led fans are....Akasa.
