I just finished work on my new computer and wanted to get some input on it. I'm going with all UV lighting, and am going to install a 4" UV cold cathode on the right side to balance out the brightness, as the left side is bright and the right side is now dark.

System specs:
Mobile Barton 2400+ @ 2400 MHz
DFI Lanparty Ultra II Mobo
Aerocool HT-101 heatsink
768 MB PC3200 ram
GeForce4 Ti 4400 128 MB
2 x 160 gb hard drives
4 x 120 mm Antec fans
52x burner
Windowed DVD Drive
Aspire 500 Watt PSU
CubedPC.com 13? Cube case

Looks okay, but it must be pretty loud. I wouldn't trust my components to that PSU, either.

I'm guessing here that it's not too loud with the fan controller... Same one as I'm planning to get :)

It really isn't loud at all. I have the 120mm fans turned all the way down, which makes them almost silent while still pushing a lot of air. Most of the noise comes from my CPU cooler which only puts out 32 dB. It could be really loud if I had put really high power fans and ran them at full power all the time.
I did debate over getting that PSU, and in the end I thought the looks and price were worth the risk. It seems like it would be pretty well built... if it were a 350 watt PSU. Luckily thats what I was running this system on previously, and I don't really need it's full rated capacity.
