My wife would shank me if I posted a picture of my messy desk. I post most of my messages from my phone anyway.

Is that because you can't find your keyboard?

I'm looking at a sandy bridge i5-2500K and use my current video setup.

NICE wallpaper......

Though, can't say the same for the case. I like the look of plain case. Such as or my server case.

I decided to go with water cooling this time so that case worked out good.
Out of the box the case looks much better than the pictures of it.

A few of the reasons i went with this case is the SSD mount in one of the drive bays and the 120mm fan behind the CPU to cool the back of the board.
The top mounting dual radiator spot is perfect for a XSPC Rasa 750 RS240.

What i don't like about this case is how deep the DVD drive sits and the black mesh will be a dust magnet.

I plan on doing some overclocking with a 2500k so i need the extra cooling this case has.

Installation of the water cooling kit went great, no leaks so far and easy installation.

I did make one mistake and cut the water lines to short to slide the reservoir out far enough to add water but i had enough extra to redo it.

I had the system up and running on air for a week playing around with the built in video on the CPU and doing some mild Over Clocking.

Now i just have to find a new video card or use the old 5850 from my back up game system.

For sound and heat management water cooling is the way to go.

Here's mine a week or two ago. Needs straightened up, but it's basically all there. PC tower is against the wall, under the stereo. It's a window + lights deal, but it was the right price and size so I live with it.

PC specs, since that seems to be the thing to do:
Motherboard: ASRock A785GMH/128M
Proc: AMD Phenom 9850 (4x2.5 GHz)
RAM: 4 GB DDR2 800
Gfx: Onboard! Wooooo!
OS: Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal

Built on a budget, but gets the job done.

man, that build completely blows mine out of the water!

gigabyte ex58-ud3r mobo
i7 920
6GB ddr3 1333
GeForce GTX 260

all in an Antec 300 case, which i love. Subtle and sleek...

3-4 years ago my current setup then was watercooled (good ol p4, aka the toaster) i loved it, cpu/vga/harddrive blocks and everything. It was great, up to the point where the pump literally caught on fire due to a short.
I would love to turn my current build into a watercooled masterpiece, like this guy.

definitely my next project...

as soon as i clean my desk a bit ill put up some images of my computer.

Clean desks are for Sissies. Give me clutter so I can't find that pen when I need it.
