Looks great!!!, how is this computer , heat and sound wise?thinking of getting the same but with MSI gtx 580 lighting and Arctic freezer cooler pro rev.2 for my cpu.

@ModelKlaani

It has two fan modes - High and Low - triggered on rare panel. You may set up the exact chasis fan speed using bios. Anyway, it's silent! Its cooling is perfect, many times my PC worked 24/7 for a few weeks at full CPU load! No overheating problems and such! It's great!

It's not overclocked. It boosts itself when needed.

"Box" means it cames with a cooler. So, it's a dummy Intel cooler that works but a little noisy at my taste.

EDIT:

Replaced the Intel stock CPU cooler to Zalman CNPS8000A! Looks like it's the biggest cooler that barely can fit in such configuration!

Awesome but gayist fuckin song I've ever heard

I'm thinking about getting one but it will have a liquid cooled i5 2500. Don't know if I want to overclock ro not so I don't know if I want the 2500 or 2500k. leaning toward the 2500k though just in case I want to overclock. Do you think the 2500 will last me a while with no OC?

@encode84 mini itx ftw! i wish the z68s didnt throttle when oc though :( hopefully in the near future when ivy comes out the itx gaming scene will mature

Will the 180mm fan cool a system alright.

I have pretty much the same build with a Scythe SCSMZ-2000 cooler. It's quieter than the intel fan and it keep the cpu at around 25c. I replaced the push pins with a Scythe SCURK-3000 Universal Retention Kit because 2 of the pins poppped out when I was carrying the PC sideways in a back pack. Now it is totally stable. I also have a GTX570, but mine is an EVGA with a blower fan. This case works best with blower fan GPUs. Best LAN rig ever.
