This is a build I've been working on for a little while now. What do you guys think?

Looks really clean, especially the innards. How are the temps and how quiet is the rig?

*note to self - Make my cabling look like his.

Lol fans! You shouldn't need a space heater if it gets cold outside.

Looks cool, what's all under the hood?

I like your desk too.

Let me try to guess parts:

Motherboard: ASUS Maximums Formula
CPU: Q6600 or E6750
RAM: Not sure - but those heat spreaders look familiar :p
CPU Cooler: Zalman 9500 or 9700
PSU: Something from Corsair?
Sound Card: X-Fi
VGA: 8800 GTX, GTS, or Ultra - They all look similar to me

rgeist, My temps are average 30-32. The fans on the side are not loud at all, I do have a fan controller on the rear fan. I thought at first that having these many fans would make it real loud but I can hardly hear my Raptor.

Nice build, OCing temps shouldn't be a problem :) .

So, they must not make that zalman cooler with the LED fan light for the LGA775 then? Just the black fan?

Reply to zaaephod

zaaephod, actually they do have a led version, the one on my pc is from a previous build. If I had a clear side-panel I might have gotten the led one.

Reply to akousticgroove

This was my previous build, you can see I used some of the parts.
