Finally finished the new build.

Not going to show pics of my case cuz its ugly since i got drunk and tried to cut a hole for a 120mm fan the other night haha...

Got the final piece of the puzzle today, my HD5850 arrived and I'm happy to say I'm very happy with it's performance thus far.

Rig is in Sig....

CM690II suggested as a case. I dont think there is another case with that amount of space, amazing cable management, interior painted and cooling capability for that price.

Total of 10 fans. All intakes are filtered for dirt. Also two 120mm on the floor for card cooling. I liked the 690 but had a couple issues with it that rubbed me the wrong way. Well - with this case they fixed them all, well except the clear side panel. That detail is personal preference only tho.

Can't beat that case. Its just built right.

You dont have to do the window - you can order one for that.

Just wish they would make that an option when buying.

I really like the CM690 II Advanced case. Much more than my Antec 900.
I wish it were a full tower though.
