noice. well technically my rig was already completed, I just got a lame board and didn't want to wait for the RMA to go through so I picked up the MSI K9A board. and it just so happens that my parents got me the sweet psu for christmas so I'm not gonna bother getting it up and running, just to run it for like 3 days and then rip it out to put in the new psu.

how many slots does the Accelero cooler take up, with the 120mm fan on it?

the accelero takes up 1 and the 120mm fan takes up 1. so all in all it takes up 3 slots including the card itself. but the good news is i didn't cover up the crossfire connector piece, so when I go crossfire I'll just throw it in the second slot and put the second card on stock in the first.

haha, its like that antec psu. thats where i actually got the idea. and I was gonna put the Radioactive symbol on the side, but that ended up failing miserably so i gotta think of something different to do cause it looks really bland. also i gotta get a new piece of acrylic to put on the side window cause i dropped the one thats on there right now. but yeah it's all DIY. also i painted the inside of it all black, and it looks really good with the board cause its the black board.

and yeah it will help with the oc, and so will all the stickers on the front

also my brother got home from college today and he came in, saw the computer and went, wow when you turn that thing on is it gonna levitate?
