Newegg has it for $44 without powersupply, which for a Coolermaster is a good deal!

Damn, that's a pretty sweet deal. I've got everything I need, (Obviously) I just need to flow more air through the case.. unless the fan on my GPU IS dying, then Leadtek and I are gonna have some words...

Hat: are your fans flowing in the right directions?

IN on the bottom of the case

OUT on the top of the case.

IN on the sides

PS fan should blow OUT as well

Yeah, and all the fans that are blowing out are moving cool air out too. I think the videocard has gone to crap (At least the Fan has) and I need to get with Leadtek about it... But I don't want to pack mine up and ship it to them, and not have a PC for 4-6 weeks either.

You should take a pic or two of the inside and outside of the case, I want to see what it looks like

I need a place to host my pics right now.

Then I can.

Awesome. I can only imagine. And as far as hosting goes... This works for me!

Nice Ice!

I'm stuck trying to remember how to get windows to partition more than 137gb on a fresh install.

SP2...previous versions have issues with drives sizes bigger than that.
