Side panel off? Have fun clearing out the dust with that. Can't really imagine the size of the case if you have 3 front fans with a drivebay fan... speaking of which you never said what case you had.

GPU is underwhelming considering the rest of the build, and 9 120mm fans + 1 200mm? Where do you even have the place for all of them? My own case (CM690II) has two 120mm fans in the front, one up top, one in the rear, and my Noctua NH-D14 heatsink has two fans in push-pull. That's 4 fans + 2 from the cpu cooler. But I do recommend upgrading the video card, otherwise that's the limiting factor.

[quote=DawnJunior]Seeing as you have a Gaming beyboard scrap the HD 5450, there are many other cards that provide much better performance & cost relatively cheap
Aim for something like GTX 460 or HD 57xx 58xx[/quote]
I did purchase this graphics card for £70 awhile ago and I wanted to re use it until it's time to part with it. I recon it's too soon to part with it as I just got it a couple of months ago. I do have the money to upgrade my graphics card to the best... butt once I have a steady income and more good cards come out I might get a decent one :]
I'd like to get a ATI HD one because I like eyefinity :]
