    Coming Back To You Folks For Suggestions

    Four years ago I had a plan to built a decent Northwood rig (references: One, Two, Three) and I came in here and got just some spiffy advice on a few things I wasn't absolutely sure of, and I ended up with what's been a fantastic machine for the interim.

    How Cool/Loud Do You Think My Config Will Be?

    Caution: I tend to ramble, so this will probably be a long post. Get a cup of coffee. I'm kicking around some ideas in my head for a new system, and thus far I've selected most of the components having to do with cooling/noise and I was wondering how well I've chosen. You guys seem to be the...

    What Would You Recommend?

    I'm in the infancy of planning for a new system, it'll be my first totally "from-scratch", and I would greatly appreciate your input on cases that you have experience with, would recommend, have been dreaming about yourself, or otherwise would suit my needs.
