That's superb. Something to show everyone who claim high end graphics require lots of room to breath :roll:

I like the pictures and hwo you utilized space, but surely that thing cannot be quiet. Got any noise measurements? :D

Probably a matter of perspective, but I'd also question that. In particular the noise level of pump in the Corsair, though you probably can't hear it over the PSU and GFX fans. :)

Concerning the noise....I'm using this in noisy locations and gaming with headphones....so noise wasn't much of a concern. Having said that, it's fairly quiet at idle....but while loaded (CPU or GPU) it is pretty noisy....the San Ace & the GPU (pump and PSU fan are inaudible over the other two ;)).
