You will need to get another 200mm or 2-120mm fans for the side panel. Lot's of heat with that i7.

Thanks man! Definitely loving it! I went to my brother-in-law's a while ago to pick up L4D2, MW2 and BO cd's cuz Steam is gonna be really slowwwwww to download. I'm installing cod4 at the moment. 
I played BO on his PC and man, what a HUGE difference from what I used to have! I did wayyyy better without the stutter I had with my previous PC LOL His PC is an i5 and his GPU is 1 gig. I can already imagine what this bad boy is gonna be do! I just need to find a good mouse in the near future.
All in all, I'm excited with my new rig!
I'd like to thank (in no particular order), Damage, Code, Blu, Pug, AVC, joe and anyone else I might of forgotten that gave their input on my rig. Thanks!
Be ready for an ass-whoopin'!

Your certainly welcome Wally, I love to help out on building PC's. The current PC I have now was custom made by ME and all my future PC's will also be built by me, I love doing it and you can pick exactly what you want, the best part of it!!
Looks like I'll be doing the same thing here on out. The research, build, to the final product was a fun thing to do!
By the way, I was just playing on BO and boy it looks and plays smoooooooth!! Nothing compared to what I had before! No freezing, delays or anything! Though I only played on 2 games but still, it was perfect! :grouphug:
Now I gotta install the free games I got! Mafia 2 & R.U.S.E. I also got a trial of Starcraft. My co-worker told me it was good but I dunno if I should install it or not since it's only a 7 day trial...
Games I already installed:
cod4
MW2
BO

C'mon! I told you to build it naked to prevent static! How soon we forget!
Man, having a huge fan at the top of the case that blows everything to the top and eventually goes to my legs is definitely gonna be something to get used to.. I'm getting cold!!!! and I have pants on! I can already imagine when I have boxers only lol Though, it'll definitely gonna be handy come summer time but that's months away! yikes!
Nice build WaLLy glad to see you got it up and running looks like a nice clean build you definetly did a good job if this was your first time. like many other ive built many pcs also and planning on building an i7 next. You should try to install Snow Leopard on a seperate HD and post ur results wally or even plug in that hd that already has it on it.
