Time to start cleaning that rear exhaust fan! ;-)
Nice build
Are those the Alchemy braided extensions?Was going for a Gigabyte 670, but I found a store which had the Asus DCUII on sale, which meant the €40,- price difference was gone, so I went with this one instead.
Looking at some of the recent pictures in here I really want to get a new case and PSU now. Having my cpu 4 pin go across the innards of my case instead of around the back just makes what could be a decently clean looking case just a little worse off. Plus it's a little crowded, I suppose for a 40$ case I got more then my moneys worth since it had at the time a lot of features only more expensive cases had.
Also does anyone know about custom sleeving? or when I get a HX 750 should I just spend 80$ on white cables?

Get an AX if you want to buy the extra cables, the HX doesn't let you sleeve the 24 pin and 8pin because they are integrated into the unit.
Oh good point didn't even think of that.

Hey Drunkenvalley, where do you buy your Water cooling equipment. I have found that Norwegian retailers have a limited selection.

Hey guys, here's my modded Antec 902 V3. I made a couple modifications such as a full-size window, & a drive bay-mounted radiator. I also sleeved some (not all) wires, such as the 24-pin, 6-pins, & 4 pin. I have some blue UV sleeving if I need to (I have yet to use it) & more modding stuff. I ordered my parts from FrozenCPU (such as the molding, sleeving, etc), it all worked pretty well. Used double-sided tape mostly, used a hand cutter to cut out the panel and a dremel to sand it. Lastly, I mounted my SSD in the bottom right, behind my "creative" sticker. Not the cleanest, but I did my best. Note that I'm only 16 and this is my first build. Feel free to be critical, I'm not totally happy with the build & I still need to work it a little. Oh, mind the pictures - they were taken with my blackberry therefore are not of the best quality.
Sig specs are outdated; so here's what its at now.

Techbay.no for Bitspower fittings, and possibly waterblocks if they have it in... Most of my stuff's gone through Aquatuning.no. This time I ordered the waterblocks directly from EKwaterblocks.com.
But yeah, digitalimpuls.no have a selection too, and while their selection is limited they have a better radiator selection than techbay... but aside from that there's not really any Norwegian watercooling shops that I've found.
new addition, figured it has some place here :P
My Gaming set-up is less a set-up at the moment and more a pile of components on my kitchen table but, nevertheless, here's what it will be:
CPU - I7 - 3770k
GPU - AMD Radeon 7950 MSI
RAM - 8GB corsair vengeance 2133kHz
HDD - Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB
SSD - 120GB Samsung 830
PSU - 750Watt Corsair Enthusiast Series
Case - Areocool X-strike Red-Black
Motherboard - AsRock Z77 extreme4
Keyboard - Microsoft sidewinder x4
Mouse - Microsoft sidewinder x8
Screen - Samsung 23.6 inch LED widescreen
OS - Windows 7
Should be good when its built. If only the case would arrive...
Just finished a number of upgrades on my new system, and I'm definitely happy with the results. I'll definitely mod the window though, really not liking the fan holes and the tinted look of the acrylic. Other than that, I love this Corsair C70.
