core 2 duo q6600 in the pic

@Strid cables from the psu all came braided/sleeved , I done the cables coming from the case to mobo and all the sata cables most noisy part is the WD WD6400AAKS but that's just the drive spinning not annoying and not in anyway intrusive in fact i can only hear it when the fans are on really low and...
