 That was a misleading title for me! I thought this was a CM Storm Trooper case and was admittedly confused for a second. Very nice build though! I'm a fan of the white tubing with black accents throughout.

Very nice, the wood would look fine if you sand the rough side and attach the two pieces to better hide the gap (you could even seal the two together etc)
Sadly upgrade didn't happen... system is: AMD Athlon II X4 640 GTX 570 Classified 8gb Corsair Vengeance RAM 1600 ASUS M4A78LT-M-LE mainboard NZXT BETA Evo case Zalman Reserator external tower liquid cooling (black anodised version)

Looks great! I love how the plate along the bottom hides the power supply and cables giving it a nice, clean look. Sounds like something I might have to look into with my rig

Looks awesome. I would have felt a little bad if I got you a waterblock with a copper top, so it looks like the right decision was made. I'm truly glad you like it. And I love the build. Keep up the good work that you do. Now go enjoy some games with your kids.

Also I just glanced through your mods rigs. Time for an update. You've also had some pretty sweet rigs in the past.

That sucks, I wish that I could help. But my ocing knowledge is limited to AMD and very little on X58, no P67:(. Hope you get it figured out soon.

Finally figured out my RAM issues... For some reason every time i went to set voltages manually it would revert back to 1.5v... Used the RAM profile to set it at 1600 @ 1.65v and it's overclocking much better now... Still trying to find my lowest stable volts at 4.43 GHz

since you're using a 2600K wouldn't it be better to do OCs with {100x42, 100x43, 100x44, 100x45, ... ,100xK} , K belongs to  . (yes, Im a mathematician..  ) I think you'll get better OCs that way.. try it.. ?
