Real nice build linnemeyerhere. Cool n' quiet, gotta love those Noctuas. I've been looking at components online of late; getting the itch, but it'll have to wait until I win the Lotto.

No hurry on upgrading. The rig in your specs is pretty good as it is. I'm sure it will do most anything you want. Don't let the addiction get you. You'll be broke like me all the time.

Yea I'm pretty satisfied with this rig but will build another when it won't break the bank. I expect there are alot of us Computer Upgrades Broke Me Club (CUBMC) members, or recovering ones, posting here.

My rig is only two years old and does everything I need.
I upgraded to SSD's and my 24" monitor already.

Need more??? No.
Want more? Why of course.

Will I? Probably not.

I do like the white cases but I'll stick with my black'n'blue one, since I tend to beat it up.

Britton, I guest that its a dust filter. What are you using for that ?

Do you mean this Boshko? If so it a some black sheer curtain material I have zip ties to the CPU fan. Works pretty good. I also have some on the front and top fans. the top one is held on with magnetic strips and the front with zip ties.

I didn't think about that on the internal fans.

Great idea Gary.

Thanks Mike, it will help keep CPU fin cleaning to a bare minimum. I think I'll engineer a filter for my GPU fan too.

Yes, that. Pretty smart.
How's about airflow?
