I dunno how you can get all that so well organized. You guys should take a look at my box. Its a cable jungle. Sec gonna go find my digital cam.
 
Finally here it is xD My new case with 3 new fans. I still need a better CPU cooler.

As you can see all the cables are a mess :S

 
Hum nop. Well the one in the backside of the chasis does. Its has 2 white leds that blink and kinda blind you. the others aren't very strong
 
the jet 4 is not a great heatsink cooliscool lol. Fair enough it cools your rig well, but a thermalright of some description would do so much better. The main failing is the loudness of those damn things. horrible.
 
All copper Socket A/370 HSF on my 9800 Pro. :)

nice what method did you use to attach it?
Drilled holes in the HSF base corresponding to the pushpin holes on the videocard, used screws and 2 rubber washers to fasten it from the back. Removed the shim as well, to save some time by not having to cut the base to conform to it. I only need 2 PCI slots anyway, so I didn't lose anything. :)

Wired the fan to my mobo power molex for +17V, as the fan originally didn't cool off the HSF very well. Gained a substantial overclock too. I couldn't get a bit past 414 without artifacts before, now I'm at 450MHz and I haven't seen a single artifact.. the 9800 Pro's stock cooler is, well, crap.
 
Already taken care of. :) I have a few cable ties attached to the backend of the card and then on to my case holding it up.
