A little Bling for Z5

I got my shipment from Performance-PCs today... most of it at least. There was a slight problem but after just one email to them it was completely taken care of in less than 2 hours. So now I have my Enzotech cooler, Lian-Li drive covers, blue case fans (the power cables are only about 6 inches long on the thermaltake fans - a little short IMO), red UV round IDE cables, some aluminum fan filters and a UV LED Ring-Puk... and everything's wires have been expertly sleeved in red UV reactive materials. Their website has the phrase 'Sleeve it and they will come' in the title bar. I think that if you order just one sleevable item from this website you'll understand that phrase. You can always buy the sleeving materials and DIY but it's likely that it will never look as good or well done as it does from Performance-PCs. I'll take pictures eventually. I get a silly grin on my face when I sit and look at the sleeving job on my stuff. It's just so cool :)

I'm not sure when I'm going to tackle the cooler install. I want to sand down the processor's top when I do that to make sure it's as flat as it can be and hopefully I'll get some pretty interesting temperatures. I think I'd like to see a 10 degree drop but I'm not sure that's possible. Z5's proc is currently idling around 45c.
