Might be worth getting some extra vents in there to aid cooling?

I did the matt-black one the wrong way around, layed it out and sprayed it all, then went around the "ring of light..etc" with a fine point taking off any over spray that went on there.
Ste, the bodge king.
In regards to the fans, I bought the proper fitment ones that sit infront of the CPU heatsink and to the right, sharing the power from the DVD-Drive .. Noisey as fuck so I took them off.

Im going to be soldering a 3 point connection onto the motherboard to power the fan as not to "steal" anything from the dvd drive
