Looks nice. Couple of questions:
- where is the duct attached to the front of the PSU leading to? It appears to stop at the 5.25" bay cover... or am I missing something?
- do you have a D12SL-12 fan to compare the 14cm one with? I was wondering how they compare.
If you duct the Ninja to the back fan, chances are that you won't need a fan on the Ninja at all.

The crude and easy duct uses the top 5.25" bay. It's basically a piece of carpet bent to a U shape and stuck between the PSU and the CD drive located at the second top 5.25" bay.

Sorry don't have D12SL-12 fan to compare. TriCool makes more noise at same voltage than D14sl-12. CPU fan is noisies part at the moment even it's run by AMD's Cool 'n' Quiet. The plan is to use only a 14 cm fan (possibly ducted to Ninja). Current exhaust duct is more like a 14 to 12 cm adaptor.

Mmm, I like the way the P150 looks next to that screen. Tres sexy. And good choice of keyboard manufacturer

Very nice!
Did you hide the floppy behind the 3,5" cover? If so, can you open the cover from the outside?
I stuck a beige floppy drive in the 3.5" bay al the way up front and that looked like crap. Tres unsexy!

One thing I've seen people do is to mount the floppy backwards, so that you can still use it relatively easily by removing the side door, but it doesn't spoil the outside of the case.
However, it seems that notareal's floppy is mounted normally... I'm curious as well.

No comments about hardware setup (well, get a ducted ninja and you're golden), but let me get this straight - you're playing half life 2 on integrated graphics??? Just how many fps are you getting?

Around 27. Barelly playable.
