All I've got is a camera phone, but here goes:



Antec SLK3700AMB w/ stock PSU, stock case fan @ 5V (still a bit noisy)
Abit AN7 (NB fan is TOO DAMN LOUD)
Athlon XP 3000+ (400 FSB) @ stock speed/voltage
Thermalright SI-97 w/ Nexus 92mm
2x256MB Corsair Value Select DDR400 @ stock timings
Western Digital WD800JB Suspended in FDD cage w/ StretchMagic
Two generic optical drives - one isn't hooked up
ATI AIW 9800 Pro @ XT speeds
VGA Silencer Rev. 3
OCZ BGA ramsinks
Off-brand GeForce 2 MX400
Front panel audio connections cut from old case (don't need but lost the jumper)

Will a passive heatsink not fit on the northbridge? With airflow from the CPU fan, you should have no problem cooling a Zalman or CoolerMaster passive chipset heatsink. Clearance may be an issue, though. But I suggest you look into it if you haven't already.

Nice job of keeping all the cables out of the way.

Probably, but I'm out of money at present time, so a passive heatsink gets bumped down a bit.

Anyway, we've got an ASUS mobo with a VIA chipset, I'd use the passive heatsink from that but I'm sure the nForce2 chipset runs hotter. Also, it's a pretty low-airflow case, so I'm not sure passive cooling could be trusted.

Well, seeing as that horrible northbridge fan finally died, I decided to go ahead and get a passive replacement. Should arrive by Friday.

In the meantime I'm without a usable computer. Those skimpy little heatsinks are more or less useless without a very fast-moving fan mounted on them...

I finally got my software fixed, too!
