Thanks to InWin !! This case is awesome. I will post more photos when I get to resize them, they are too large to post right now. lol

I'll give this build to my old folks and upgrade their old Athlon X2 3200+ that can barely run anything.
i3 530 + EVGA H55V + Delta 250w power supply + Hitachi Deskstar 250GB + (of course) INWIN GRIFFIN!!
I didn't realize that the motherboard didn't have an IDE connector until I have assembled everything. lol! USB OS installation FTW! Also the DDR3 kit I was gonna put on this thing is on RMA so I popped in my own desktop ram for the photo op. lol |

Nothing much in the hardware but the Griffin keeps things cool with that giant 220CM fan just in case I decide to throw in my old video card once I upgrade.
Right now the CPU idles at 18ºC and max load is at 58°C. |

I'll probably get a core i3 whenever I get around to building a system with my Wavy Mini-ITX case. |

It runs cool, boots fast. When I get another h55 motherboard with some OC options (this one doesn't have any. lol save for XMP profiles I guess) I'd like to play with oc'ing it, as you can see, even with stock heatsink it barely produces any heat.

After a week of use, I think the thermal paste has now cured properly and my idle temps are single digits. lol I didn't think I'd see that ever. It is just begging to be overclocked. |

Nice looking build you have here! What kind of memory did you guy for it and what is the brand and specs on the video card? |

I thought he said he was going to add a PCI-E card into the case at some point. That's what I was curious about :) |
