its only over the wires, your wires emit no heat whatsoever
Don't see why it would.Quote:

just seems like the more junk you cram into a crowded area the hotter it will get. oh well.
Actually if you get rounded IDE cables it will improve airflow since it makes more room in the case.Quote:

I am not going to spend much on modding so I thought I would start simple with a paint job and some LED. Tell me what you think of this. Note: the picture is off a 1080b while mine is 1030b but the differences are minor.

What about green and black sorta like an x box :)
That'd be awesome. Show those console wimps who's boss when you show em a GF3, GF4, or 8500 cranking out 100fps at 1024x768:cool:Quote:
