E6600, 2gb pc8000 ddr2, 8800gts 768mb, antec 900, asus P5N32-E plus and a tt120 are the key details. Man am I impressed so far.

The case is a little noisy running on medium, didnt dare try high speed tho! One thing I wasn't sure about was the big 220m fan in the top of the case, even on high it didnt seem to push much air. Anyway, after installing windows, and all the applications and what not the CPU was running at..21oC.

Will run Orthos later tonight to see how it performs under heavy load, but a lot better then I was expecting, so thanks to those that advised the TT! ;)
 
Just checked the Bios temp after a driver install reboot. I know its not the most accurate thing in the world, but its got to be fairly close.
 
You would be surprised. The bios temp could be well out - it has been on by of my previous ASUS boards. Use intel TAT for a more accurate reading ;)
 
Doh, always the cold sting of reality :p

Got TAT, will try it tonight :(

Will probably get 2 more 120mm fans for the case, can anyone vouch for some silent fans, they dont need to push high cfm, but due to the amount of fans Ive got, they have to be quiet.
