I Added a lamptron fc-8 Awesome fan controller, a bit pricey I picked it up from a seller on amazon for 58 quid. Eight channels with 30 watts each, so you could add two or three fans to each channel easily. Comes with eight extension cables, so you need not worry about buying any. Has customisable leds on it, not bad feature but there's no yellow, even though it says there is. Only drawback the manual states it requires at least a 600W PSU, also has connected to the psu using three molex plug thingys. Bit of a pain as the power cables are short on the controller and I had to add extra cable, but its ok. Does the job great and can now run all my fans at max! when needed of course. It is bloody loud though, but I don't care.
Took out the top 200mm fan, for two akasa vipers (yeah I like them) Really helped getting out warm air. You will see I placed a 200mm fan below the drive bays, just to keep airflow flowing to the gpu, I have found the 200mm stock fans are great for shifting air, but they don't seem to be very strong for directing the airflow, just air blows in every direction. ]
The cables behind the drive bay are as tidy as I could get them. Also the cable management behind the motherboard tray. Let me know what you think. I did give it a dust before taking the pics but cant get it all out.
I want to get some decent lighting in there, so I can see everything in Its glory. Not a fan of the blue.
