|  Pics of my new rig.
Well, I got the new rig all ready to go. Just waiting for the CPU to show up now. 
No fancy lights or anything special. Just a clean looking, simple rig with some whoop *** under the hood.  
Should I make the "Will it play Crysis?" thread now? :laughing:

I'm not one who's big on the crazy designed cases with lights all over the place. I like something a little more conservative. This case looks very professional and clean. I like it so far, but I haven't had the chance to "use" it yet.

lol, I been there. You'll be putting it to use in no time. Only thing is I wish the case was just a little smaller so I could fit it on my desk, but that's because i don't need the extra room.

The PSU is a bit of an iffy choice. And you're going to have a hard time putting in the CPU (with the heatsink/fan) while it's mounted inside the case... you might need to unmount everything to be able to do it properly.
Awesome board though, had one myself. Cntrl-F1 to get more overclocking options in BIOS!

The CPU and HS&F will install just fine. My friend just built a nearly identical build and we installed his CPU and HS&F with the mobo in the case and it worked just fine. I'm using the Zalman CNPS7700 and he is too.
