Here's a little update... now have new Fan grills.
Also added a 80mm fan to cool the RAM and PWM IC on the DFI board

basically an MDF radbox containing Eheim 1250, Thermochill PA160, T-Line and a Silverstone LC02 containing a Maze 4 on a 6800GT and a Swiftech 6002 on a heat spreaderless 3700+ Clawhammer.

Hi, this is my current build which is still sorta being done (too lazy to strip down and paint everything etc 
)
PC
PC with lights out
2 seperate loops:
Loop 1, WACC Passive Res, Eheim 1048 Pump, 120.1 Innovatech Rad, 2 x Papst 120x38mm Fans, MCW6000 Swiftech CPU Block.
Loop 2, Tank-o-Matic Innovatech Res, Eheim 1048 Pump, 92.1 Thermochill HE Rad, 2 Panaflow 92x25 Fans, Graph-o-Matic Innovatech GPU Block, Surge Custom NB Block.
Full Size Pic Here
Not as pretty as my previous setup (which is here), but it performs better.

OK here are the pics hopefully
remember its my first crack at modding or watercooling so dont be too harsh
processor is currently running 2c above ambient with the fans turned all the way down and only goes up about 3-4c after a hour or so of battlefield 2.
GPU has dropped from 51c idle and 70c load to 31c idle and 35c load.
And even better my northbridge doesn't run at 51c anymore with that silly heatpipe on it

My first crack at watercooling, some obvious flaws such as too long tubing and those 90 degree barbs

Heres my new desk... I still need to do something about all the cables hanging down the back you can see. Any ideas?

Finally found this thread thanks to matt100
Anyhoo, just put a new rig together, nothing special and only just finished so plenty of "fiddling" to go yet...
Yes I know it is blue... but I like blue... Thinking of doing it all red but lack of motivation rules at the moment.
Apologies for the poor pic, but my camera skills are weak. You should've seen the others I took!
It's as based around an X2 chip at the moment as I thought I'd give one of them a bash to see what they are like for CAD\Rendering, spec as follows:
AMD X2 3800+ @ 2500Mhz, have booted it at 2800Mhz but need to work on getting it stable now it's watercooled.
ASUS A8N Premium mobo
2 GB Geil Value
7800 GTX Sli 490\1300 (Core will run at 520 but memory is maxxed)
74GB Raptor
300GB Maxtor
2 No CSP MAG pumps, currently incorrectly fitted in series...
RBX Cpu block
nv78 GFX blocks
DD HD poly res
Thermochill 120.3 rad with Akasa Ambers
Vantec Nexus fan controllers
All in a Lian Li PC75B
Had a mare with this build, cpu block leaked at one of the barbs for the first time in about 5 builds. The res is leaking at one of the barbs now as well, although that may be sorted now, didn't catch it in time to save the DVD\RW drive though... Never had any trouble at all before.Oh , and I'm less than impressed with these Akasa Ambers, they're far from quiet at 7v. Need to get another fan controller that allows you to take them lower...
