This is housed in a custom Velocity Micro case (http://velocitymicro.com) that was actually custom made by Lian Li. I've also made some adjustments to it to make it more water cooling friendly.

    I don't have as much time to game these days and I do mostly web work on my computer (at least as far as intensive tasks go) so I've kept my computer pretty mid-range.

    A far Cry from my Ultra-High End computers I used to build when, like I said earlier, I could get high end parts for pennies on the dollar.
    Same here my rig is basically top of the line for now and i barely game now. No time and when i do game i get bored. ive been thinking of phase cooling my i7 but the price of a -60c phase cooler for 1366 was pushing 800$+ and well for get that.

    I currently idle at 35c on air and load at 65c using the True 120 black edition
