Okay so today I decided to add a hard drive cage to my pc so I could have another 120mm fan mounted in the front. While I was doing this I decided to replace all my 120mm fans in the case and correct the cable management I failed to do last time.

Case: Cooler Master Cosmos S
Motherboard: Asus P6t-Deluxe
CPU: Core i7 920 @ stock
Memory: Patriot Viper DDR3 3 x 2GB @ 1600Mhz
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master V10 with 2 Yate Loon D12SH-12 120mm Fans
Video Cards: 2 x 8800gts 512mb (G90)
Sound Card: Creative X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Pro Series
Hard Drive 1: Western Digital Raptor SATA 3.0 300GB
Hard Drive 2: Western Digital SATA 3.0 250GB
Hard Drive 3: G.Skill Titan SSD SATA 3.0 128GB
Power Supply: Thermaltake Toughpower 700watt

I also have 3 Yate Loon D12SH-12 120mm fans up top for exhaust

1 on the bottom, and 2 in front of the hard drives for intake. I also put Aluminum Filters on all the intake fans.

Btw the specs for the D12SH-12: 40dBa, 88CFM and only $3.99. I ran across these reading watercooling forums and bought a few of them and realized they were beastly.

Ehh I did the best as I good with cable management but I have wayyyy more cables than most simple setups.

I loled @ the extension cable for the main power to the mobo, because that v10 is blocking the plug

Also, why are you running that 920 at stock when you have such a nice cooler?

I find the d12sh to be a bit loud when placed as the top exhaust, so I'm gonna chalk that upto Antec's mount blowing dick, but aside from that I've got 2 out of 4 in the case running atm, and its pretty doable with the doors off.

actually quieter then my old pc though, so that's a perk.

Here's a picture of me being bored at 6AM with all the fans running minus the cpu /gpu fans, all powered from an external hd connector, lol.

Actually the extension cable is needed because the two video cards. The cable won't fit over both of them and make it to the top left of the motherboard. It was a problem before I used the V10.

Why at stock? Well I have overclocked it to 4Ghz just for testing, but really what needs that much CPU? I realized nothing does so why lower the life of the processor for no reason?

Then, you may ask why buy that CPU Cooler...I didn't I got it free.

MY fans aren't that bad, all of them have anti vibration rubber grommets on the screws that seem to help out.

i run a tj10 right now.. easily the nicest stock case Ive ever owned.... non stock best case is probably a modded lian li v2000... it just pretty when modified... I also in the past year owned a Mountain Mod cube... wasnt a big fan though... kinda flimsy.. it needs to be built with a better grade of aluminum, but then again... you can put like 8x rads in there...
