sorry guys, i've been out of commission with the stomach flu and food poisoning!   BUT,,,,,I got my i/o board and new cage fans yesterday and put them in today!

 

LED's work and the fans work even if you adjust them.

cranked my cpu cooling, for the heck of it, to 73% and i'm at 44-45*c on all 4 core temps.  !!!!!weeeee!!!! beats high 50's or low 60's huh?

 

i'm puttin' it thru it's paces now.  Also installed the exhaust fan!  pics to follow.

hopefully this is the cure.

ps-the Thermaltake V1 is absolutely awesome, BUT, there's no way on this green earth it'll fit in the case, it's goin' back!  :(
