Nah, not really much point. The idea for most of the stuff i did came from google. I didnt copy anything but just got the ideas. The MB idea didnt come from the net. I wasnt sure if it would work at first but the temps are good.
I'll take a pic of the back later. Then you can get a better idea where all my wires are. I didnt take any care making the back look good, there wasnt much point when i wouldnt see it.

Yup and i think there ugly as hell.
I got a question since your an OCer.
I can get to 3.2 on stock volts and my temps stay the same as 2.4
What could i set my volts to and still be safe? People always talk about keeping your temps down. But what about the volts. I know more volts = more heat. Would you say, as long as i keep the temps down i'd be ok.

| Nice paint job Pingo, I've been considering doing that to my case but in black, any recommendations on how to go about doing that? Also, those 2 120mm stacked like that aren't going to increase your airflow and only increase turbulence and noise, unless of course one of them has the blades reversed, but it doesn't look like it.

Im not an experienced OCer, but yeah, as long u have a solid cpu cooler, u will be fine. Try to squeeze so high fsb as possible with stock volt first. (Worst thing that could happen, is that ur pc will restart when it attempts to start ur OS.)
I recommend you to search around for what other people managed to do. Some managed 3,0 ghz and some 3,4ghz with stock volt. And how much they had to set up their volt, to get x ghz.

Are you talking about the 2 stacked at the very back. I thought it would make it worse too. The reason why i did it is because the single back fan was making a funny sound. I thought it wasnt strong enough to pull the air out. I ran a 30min stress test before then after the second fan was added. It did help some.
I have no clue how to make better air flow. Im not a pc builder. Besides this one, i'v only built a really cheap pc. live and learn i guess. Im sure my next build will be better.
Do you think i should take them off and add one really strong one?
The only thing i did with the paint is take it in stages. It took 2-3 days to do it. I was spraying really thin layers. Im not too happy with the paint but thats easy enough to fix.

cpu cooler is the big fan on ur processor.
So if u have the stock cooler, I dont recommend you to overdo it. I've seen ppl with water cooling, and managed "only" to get 3,8ghz
but ofcourse, airflow inside the case is important too. Or your cpu cooler will cool your cpu with hot air xD
This is the standard airflow (that I also use)
2 fans in the front to drag in new cold air, and 2 at the back to drag out the hot air.
So if u check infront of ur case, and if u notice that u can have 2 more fans, use them. U can easily find fans from old computers or buy them cheap at flea markets.

I know im stable at 3.2 with stock volts. My mb has a fsb hole i think. anywhere between 3.2 and 3.6 wont boot unless i lower my multi. I have been to 3.4 with a lower multi but i cant remember if i upped the volts.
A 3 hour stress test at 3.2 (stock volts) with the best prime95 has to offer. Temps on all 4 cores were only 47/34/47/36
I'll leave the OC for another time when i know what im doing lol

oh man u are lucky. I cant lower my multi so much, because my mobo cant handle so high fsb.
