@ mr griffin,

Nice setup there, same case and monitor I'm thinking about buying just this very minute :)

OT but is that the 22" T220? What do you think of it?

Also whats the noise levels like when all case fans are on low?

thanks :)
 
Thanks :D

The monitor is awesome but be carefull as there is a panel lottery again on this monitor, I was lucky and got a samsung panel. Look on this forum under monitors it shows you how to see what panel you got.

The case is very very quiet with fans on low, the great thing is you can control the from outside the case so if gaming crank them up a bit and for say browsing and downloading turn them down for whisper quietness.

My only negative about the while build was I couldnt fit my thermochil rad for a bit better cooling, apart from that im pretty happy with it so far
 
I only got it this week. I can't tell you the name of the place as its against the rules on here but I guess I am allowed to hint... its a shop that sounds very much like the best known auction site;). I would have used overclockers but I had paypal funds needing spending from that best known auction site and OcUK don't accept paypal.

:D This is freaky, Not only do I want the same case and tft as you but i too have a stash of Paypal cash waiting to be spent! :) Thanks for the headsup, I was planning on getting it there as well, just wanted to know as they may have a batch of the Samsung panels at the moment!
 
Finally Build Time :o)

Apart from my graphics card finally got all my components (awaiting for GTX280/GT200's from Nvidia, or 9800GTX just awaiting prices) and making a slow start on my Antec 1200....:D Suprised on how large this case is :eek: nice to see Antec has put removable filters on all the front 120mm fans and the side panel fan mount... will post pics as build progresses... ;)



 
Can you put a 360mm rad in the front??? id buy this for my new build if i could be 100percent sure ;)

TFC Exchanger is the rad i wanna put in this somewhere,

Foxor`
 
Got my graphics card being delivered today, was flipping a coin between the GTX260 or a 9800GTX... and decided on a XFX 9800GTX (XXX Edition) until all the dust has settled on pricing and marketing for these next gen cards...;) Starting build tommorrow...:D will post pics as case progresses.

Lol i know my cable managing skills are not the best, but really you dont need to in a case so big with so many fans. Ok it looks tidier but no one will see it :)

Only one cable goes over the motherboard though i was rather impressed with that xD

All built will get photos up tommorrow, great case to work with, got my XFX 9800GTX (XXX Edition) and very, very pleased with its performance.. :) wasn't interested in the 4850's not an ATI fan, plus I didn't loose out on the price drop...:p ;)
