Everything is at stock settings.

I have it setting on top of a NZXT CRYO-LX cooler.

It runs much cooler when doing everyday stuff.

Example:
Video card----50 C
THRM----------42 C
CPUs----------30/31 C
HDDs----------37/37 C

I dont know of any beginner tutorials in building.. they may be out there but I do not know of any to link to here.

As for whats coming.. although I have been a bit out of the loop lately I have not heard of anything new coming down the pike.. typically graphics card companies get new product on the market in June and then again in October/Nov..
