Here are some pics of the inside of my case and my desktop, they were taken in August 2013.





The inside of the case is looking different now that my GTX580 has been removed and my loop has been changed to only include the CPU. Temps are amazing, at stock settings the CPU idles at 32°C degrees and doesn't get above 50°C with the ambient at 20°C. I look forward to adding a R9 290 or 290X to the loop next year. Along with getting better performance it will reduce the noise of the system because the EVGA GTX460 stock fan is louder than my Noctua NF-F12s, Akasa Vipers and the water pumps at low RPM. Other than a GPU upgrade the system is perfect. I had an overclock applied that is shown in my system spec details but it has been turned off because I was fiddling with it and messed up a setting that was taking too long to fix; I need to get some work done for deadlines before Christmas so I've left it off until I have time to fiddle again.

My main desktop pc is mid upgrade atm, mostly used for surfing and gaming.
Currently stuck at the age old debate over which card to buy between the GTX 770 and R9 280x.
Soon to be adding a 250 GB Samsung 840 EVO SSD and a WD Black 1TB 7200rpm,
sticking with plain fans as i dont really need LED fans with the Bitfenix Ghost being a silent case design with full length door.
Gotta love all the Xmas sales.

[Lucio]

My main PC is as per my spec

Lian-li PC-A05 case
aBit P35 mobo
Q6600 processor
4GB Corsair Dominator ram
ATI 5770 GFx
Corsair HX650 modular PSU


It's one of the best value for money purchases I've made and despite the original graphics card not lasting (an 8800GT), it's been running well for 5 years and still lets me play the games I want to play.


Would like to replace it eventually but like a lot of people out there money is far too tight for comfort
