Well from what I can see your heatsink will be able to take a 30~60% overclock, however I have some other suggestions.

1. Round Cables
2. Cable tidying (route them behind the MOBO etc)

Sorry I'm just a stickler for clean cases, so this really hurts the eyes.

Oh ya and shrink that picture to 800 x 600. It took me 5 minutes to load on a T1 connection.

It does indeed take 5 min on a t1. I had a friend try it too and it took him a whole min...and he's on his datacenter's SONET connection (fiber optic OC-3).

Most digital cameras store their pictures in the 2000+ pixel range. It makes for decently High res pics.

Yeah, he probably didn't bother to resize it or compress it.

if you want to kill your connection, I can upload (onto a seperate site of course) a raw image taken from a 14 megapixel kodak dcs/n.
