Now for the questions....on the front of the case there are a 2 usb, 1

firewire and 2 audio plugs. Got the usb hooked up, but can't figure out

where the audio goes. I've searched the surface of the mobo and still

nothing...any hints where they might connect?


I'm guessing the firewire connects to the add-on card that came with the

mobo. Is there a better way to hook it up besides running it out the case

and plugging it into the card?


Now on to the software...

I notice your system is quite like what I am about to settle on. Although I am leaning toward a different motherboard (DFI Lanparty II at the moment...I keep listening to varying opinions ). I noticed your reply on the case in my thread about my 'leanings'.


I'm curious what you think of the Xcard/PDI card combo?


It looks like you have a Zalman Heatpipe AND a Zalman fan on your Saphire 9600. Is that right? Do you really need both?(Or does the fan come with the heat pipe, or am I not seeing what I think?)


Do you know what temp your system is running?


No fan mounted under the 3.5 bays?


Lastly, what is the card that has the black device hanging on the back?


Are you happy with the case?



Thanks
