Can Anyone Recommend Practical Components for The Antec Skeleton

Now I say practical lightly as there are issues with this case and some people over look the fact and don't experience problems so they may not actually exist.

Basically I fancy something a little bit different and I haven't seen anything I like that could compete to the Antec 1200.

I think the best sort of power supply would be a dual 80mm horizontal fan cooler and a direct cpu cooler other than the latest fansink dispersers for a 775 socket.

I know a few people on here have had the case since early in the year, just wondered what people would think is the best set up with this case
 
As all your bits are on display (pardon the expression); parts that simply look "cool" are probably high on the shopping list.

With that in mind, Zalman coolers (such as the Zalman CNPS8700-LED CPU Cooler (Socket 754/939/940/AM2/LGA775) ) are a good idea.

I'm not a fan of cathodes but I think they'd look really nice in this set up.

do you see there being a problem with air flow if I went for a dispersal cooler for the cpu?
 
The large fan about the board should move most of the heat away, but the air flow (in general) will be very poor as air would be sucked from everywhere.

The advantage of a "flat" cooler is that the hot air is being pushed towards the large fan.
