I hope you are only doing the gaskets because you want to control noise levels or because you think it's neater that way. If you really need those gaskets to move enough air over the radiator it might be better to get higher flow fans rather than increasing the load on the bearings.

It just bothered me that I could feel so much air coming around the sides instead of going through the radiators. It probably won't even help very much, but it's just one of those "it bugged me" things.

Those gaskets also keep the vibration down and help with noise, made some with wet-suit neoprene in years gone by.

Updated.
Edit: Just realized I left out a pretty good chunk. I guess I'll have to fix that, too.

I always wear a headset and to me, an PC that sounds like a jet taking off is just really cool. I guess I'm a weirdo like that.

I'll give you weird - I did some work on the LCARS 47 interface a couple of years ago and even fooled some Trek fans Note LCARS 47 uses the "real" computer voice not the synthetic one above.

Just saw this. As a long time gamer myself, I have to say, great rig. Though if it's just for SC2, even LotV, it's quite a bit of an overkill :P

Yeah, but I like to see what I can push it to. When it comes to PCs, I'm a bit of a showoff so I gotta have the best of the best. Not that this stuff is the "best", but it's pretty darn good.

Finally got Windows installed. Now I just gotta wait in the infinity updates that everything requires. :/

Since I had two hard drives, I decided to install the free trial version thing of Windows 10. I have to say... I'm thoroughly NOT impressed. I couldn't find a browser. Then, to get anything, you have to go through an app store just like on your pone/tablet. I downloaded TWO different Internet Explorer things (because I couldn't find Chrome) and after they were downloaded, I couldn't find either of them to open them. Plus, when you hit the Start Menu button, it's just a "trending now" news feed thing. Seriously? A news feed on my Start Menu? No thanks. I'll stick with Windows 7.
