The heatsink is a Thermalright 120 extreme, the packaging is from my thermalright true black 120, and yep those brackets should fit.

oh so it is? i was trying to find information about it through google and all i could get was info about a later released called the thermalright ultra 120 extreme or something like that, my mistake

resized the picture, don't know why that one turned out so big..did all the other photo's the same way i thought...

ok, quick update, i ordered the bracket to mount the cpu cooler finally..along with a logitech G19 and also

and http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?mai ... s_id=11489
the last two are an effort to further the cable managment..

should have pics up either tomorrow or the day after depending on when the order is ready to be picked up, so looking forward to it

ok finally installed the heatsink, here are the pictures i've been taking and too lazy to update the thread with




got a couple of blue LED strips from ebay



the order i talked about in above post


FINALLY got the heatsink installed, took my sweet time lol


in the process of all this i moved house, so this is what the desk looks like now, i moved the computer tower onto my bedside table, leaves me with a LOT more deskspace (its not normally this clean though, just finished cleaning after installing the heatsink

RESURRECTION!
i'm back from the dead! i've gone out of the scene a bit seeing as i finished my build i just lost interest, concentrating on actually using it haha
i did however, get a new screen, mouse, and desk mat inbetween.

i'm REALLY happy with how it sits at the moment. BUT always room for improvement. by that i mean i'm getting a mate that does year12 woodwork to build my a whole new desk it's planned to be an L shape that goes where the you can see the couch is (see previous photos) and down beside the window to where the current desk ends. it's going to be MASSIVE in my tiny little room

I'm going to be building a curved L shape desk that has room for a full tower and at least 3 30" monitors

like i'd ever have 3 30" monitors

one day one day

ok, i managed to get my hands on the sketchups for my desk when i had to do some reviews, here are how they sit at the moment. looking for some advice.







and to put some more perspective on it, here is how my room sits, it's going to take up the couch, although not that deep, from wall to bed, then down to pretty much where my current desk ends.





any ideas/advice are very welcome, i'm so psyched about this .. i know i dont post much other than in my own build thread...i'm more a lurker type haha

LOL! loveing the amp in the couch XD its so epic

I would make sure you get the exact desk height you want. Maybe get a new chair if it time before you have it built. Just make sure it can at least fit a filing cabinet under it for storage. I would also pay attention to the finish you put on. Youll want something to stand the test of time. I would also make sure to round off the leading edge of the desk top. Wont dig into you wrist if your arm is hanging off. Also riku's idea of the rounded " corner " is a great idea. Will give you more work space, and not force you to being on either side of a 90 degree angle. You could sit right in the middle . Maybe at least 45 the inside corner where you sit. Would serve the same purpose, just not as soft. I could go on for a while, but will save you the.

Looking good so far man. Keep up the good work.
