Lol! to be honest i bought the mobo an all before i decided on the case! Not to worry though as ive put all of the hardware out of the Antec300 now into a smaller chassis but ive got to modify it a bit because of the lack of case fans!

Sorry about the picture quality, im currently using the Camera on my phone.

Anyway ive taken some decent pics of the hardware inside the case while i switched it into the other chassis. Im on about getting rid of the Antec case soon as im starting a corei7 build in Febuary in a Antec1200 case.

I will upload some clearer pics guys.

Thanks for the comments!

This is the hardware going into the smaller case, the Alphadog graphics card is going onto my next build. This computer is just for internet and watching Dvd's.

bloody hell look at the size of ur CPU cooler, small case did you say? lol

This cooler is absolutely essential. It has to be one of the best upgrades ive ever used! It's an asaka ak965 tower cooler and is currently on the market for around £10 on ebuyer! I would definatly recommend this to cool any 775 socket CPU except the Core 2 extreme family of chips. Im currently running an E2160 core 2 at 3.0GHz (thats 1.2GHz over stock frequencies!). It keeps the CPU at a very cool 28*c on idle and running Orthos SP for 6 Hours the chip hit a maximum of 49*c at 100% load.

Pretty impressive if you ask me.

ahh i would stick to my arctic cooling freezer 7 pro got my e2160 55c load after 24 hours under orthos oc to 3.4Ghz

Each to their own i suppose. I tried the freezer 7 pro, didn't think that much ov it to be honest.

Its a good cooler... pretty similar spec in all categories but i think i can put more trust into this asaka cooler as i personally didn't feel that the freezer 7 pro was all the reviews made it out to be
