HA, damn. Well that about covers it!

[drew and not u]

Running a total (incl. PSU, GPU, CPU) of 8 fans.

-2 120mm front intake fans
-1 120mm CPU fan on XP120
-1 120mm exhaust fan
-1 120mm PSU fan inside Neopower480
-1 92mm top intake fan
-1 92mm HD cage fan
-1 80mm fan on my Zalman VF700cu VGA cooler

All stuffed into a Thermaltake armor, keeps my 700MHz OC'd P4 happily idling at about 36C :)

Well thats no good. Its heavier! How is that possible

[gvblake22]

It's heavier because it is bigger and it has thicker side panels and a full lengh front door. Your case already weighs well over 50 pounds, so I doubt another 1-3 pounds is really going to affect your mobility

Its just a big pain in the ass to bring my pc to my friends house. I have to use a skateboard for gods sake.

are there any large, light cases out there?

Is THIS big enough for ya?! 8) It's waaayyy bigger than the P180 and weighs the same.

Or the Chenming CMUI-601AEB-AW "mid-tower" version is only 24/26 pounds.
The Lian Li PC-007 series type cases are only like 12-15 pounds...

[Tyreal]

those cases don't look too bad. I just don't want Lian Li because they are too expensive.

I think i'll jsut stick with the P180 and man it up :D

Alot compared to your water setup, but not as much as one might expect. It's quiet enough that I can watch a quiet movie without the sound of the fans coming through, so not too bad. I do plan on doing a watercooling project this summer though, maybe I can get this bad boy up to 4GHz with some better RAM!
