2x 80mm blade fan grills
blue CCFL
Saitek Eclipse keyboard

We'll start with the Zalman.

Removed my old HSF:

Lowered my video card temps from 47*C idle, to 37*C idle. I have yet to test it in BF2.

I got a VF900-Cu too. My load temps with it are what my idle temps with the stock cooler were, around 47C!

Eh.. CCFLs... Don't trust em, never have never will.

Just go solder some LEDs together, it's not worth having the inverter blowing up and melting your case.

I'm not too worried...

Tons of people run CCFL's...the success:failure ratio is too sad to worry about it.

Hum, I'll show you my case after I've installed the new PSU, the new UV-cathodes and my sweet new fans

PS: I got this fan grill with my case - but I don't like it. I removed it, since it really adds a lot of air flowing noise...

I like it cause they're not restrictive at all...really open.
