It is a little tight in there, and looks a little messy. Try eliminating some of that cable clutter, and re-evaluate why that fan is near the HD's.

the MSI board is great...after some initial bios quirks that reports wrong temp, which is solved with the latest 1.4bios, the board is super stable and fast

no the fan is blowing to the HD, it is used to cool the Nforce chip on the mobo as well as the Heatsink on the SCSI card

Looks good to me, except for those cables and the fan sitting where it wouldn't be expected.

Not sure I like the quality of that CPU heatsink too, considering the CPU is O'ced.

Looks ok Man. Would recommend getting some better cooling for your CPU. How about some pics of your case. Too tight shout to figure out;)
