Scan had the silverstone lc17s on today only for £48 - so i thought it was too good to miss so picked one up to replace my old pc case
Specs
MSI K8N Platinum NF4 s939
Athlon64 4200 x2 Toledo @1.2v
AMD X2 Heatpipe cooler
2x512mb OCZ EB CAS 2.5 @ 1T
Club3D X1600 Pro AVIVO pci-e
Nova-t 500 Dual TV Tuner
1x Samsung SP120 SATA2 200gb
NEC 5170 DL DVD+/-RW
Antec 380w Truepower
Silverstone LC17 with 2x80mm & 1x120mm Nexus fans
Vista 32bit Home Premium
Changing from the old case with 2 x 120mm nexus fans has dropped my temps from 49 load to 40 load, idle seems to be around the 34 mark - nice :)
'Borrowed' the idea from a more impressive build from silentpcreview.com for the hard drive foam mounts and 120mm air chamber to silence and cool the samsung hard drive...
the finished article - just in time for the gf to record HollyOaks! :angst:
