I only changed my cpu fan because the old cheap one I had was rattling like a hoover sucking up pebbles and it was either it goes, or... I regret my alternative options.
I ended up getting one of thise, IceEdge 200T (deep cool) and let me tell you, I thought those pushpin types that you have on yours were a pain in the backside to plug in without either feeling you're breaking the mobo or the actual plastic separators that secure it... this.. this thing..
It just sits there... I can actually move it without much effort.. .I know it's on there OK as I do push this to extremes a lot of the time and have kept close eyes on the temps, but.. yeesh. talk about unnerving for the first few hours.

Mine's a bit old.
I think it used to belong to Jules Verne, and the furnace doesnt produce as much heat as it once did...
But it can sometimes get up to 50psi.
The keyboard is getting on in years, too...
Too much verdigree on the space bar, and the glass covers on the gauges also need cleaning.

That is a sweet steampunk kit. Was it custom made or did you find the case/keyboard somewhere?
Also, do the gauges work? It'd be sweet to have a psi gauge stand in for the fan RPM or a heat register, lol.

Its all custom made, by me, for my own use.
The big "psi" gauge on the front works as a temperature sensitive reading, but really doesnt move once its up to temperature.
The two gauges on the keyboard work as capslock and numlock. Scrolllock gives them a backlight eery looking green effect.
