Please dont confuse yourself with the thought of a air conditioning unit being a viable way to cool a computer system might cool it down but it's just not preacticle unless your impatient/foolish enough.

:rolleyes:

And it's attitudes like that which are why no one takes you guys seriously.

Drop the attitude and go join a real computer forum like OCForums and I'll gladly confirm who I am via a PM. Consider it an invitation.

My brother asked me my opinion of Xet's setup and thats why I went ahead and posted that. I don't see why it would be considered unpractical, all it requires is a simple air duct or to put the computer in front of the cold air. How hard is that? When you come inside on a hot day doesn't it feel good to stand in front of the cold air? How difficult is it to do that? :rolleyes:

Oh and the proof is in the pudding... er case modding

My case project (the one on the left) next to Legionaire's (my brother). And before you jump to the conclusion that we're one and the same, no my brother has his own account there under the same name as he has here.

Woah snowy, your bro got lucky heh, great setup. I can only wish of that :P heh.

Now that I've reclaimed my account....

The Coolermaster Case is awesome. I wouldn't pay $800 for one (although its a deal considering that most paint jobs by Smooth Creations cost a few limbs) but I do like that case. Awesome how he won it, <3.

$800? Bloody hell, I wouldnt ever pay that much for a case, unless I was a millionnaire, to me cases dont have to be fancy, if money was no object then I'd have a fancy case yes, but to me spending the money on the actual parts therefore it effects what you actually look at and do is far better. Yes some cases can help your pc go faster due to air circulation and stuff but doesnt make THAT much difference

Well, you can get the case without the secksi paintjob for like $260 I think. Cheaper after rebates too.

Also, the painted version is actually $899 dollars. The price for a paintjob like that is worth it if you're going for a showcase PC, but I would rather ghetto-paint the cheaper one with an airbrush.

I suddenly have the urge to cut a stencil and find a spray can.

I have a great setuo, but first to organize it to perfection.

Here's a higher quality pic of my PC's innards:

Yeah, my bro got pretty darn lucky. He gave me the thermaltake orb master, because he's getting a new cooler! :)
Here's my pics:








The wire that you see in the middle of the panel fell down when I was taking pictures :( But it's back in it's right place now. So just image the side panel without a wire going right through it :) For the most part, I have a pretty clean PC.

Specs:
Intel Core 2 Duo e4300
Sapphire Radeon X1950GT
2Gigs of Crucial Ballistix Tracer
