I've had a midi tower for quite awhile. It was a cheap temporary one until I could afford something a little bit more suitable for my needs. Without further ado, my new setup :

As you can tell. My cooler is freakin huge (Coolermaster V6 GT)

Some pics of it wired up (Mostly)

Some pictures of the case

Total cost of the build is around $1200 the specs are as follows :

Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD3
Intel Core i7 860 @ 3.08Ghz
ATI HD 5770
8GB DDR3 Corsair XMS3 RAM
2000GB Storage
750W Modular Dual rail 12V PowerCool PSU
Coolermaster V6 GT
NZXT Phantom case

Since the picture of the build I've replaced the PSU to a Modular 750W PowerCool PSU.

Upgrades on my list :

ATI XFX 6970 (Will have by the end of next week)
Sandybridge mobo
Sandybridge i7

*Note, I'm not actually sure if this is the right section. I just thought I'd like to post it to get your views on my build though.

This is the right section. The built looks pretty epic, but I'm proud to be beating you in at least one area (temporarily anyways). I have a new ATI Sapphire 6850. The case looks awesome and kinda reminds me of Alienware. How much was it?

The stretched headphones over your case in the last picture almost made me cry. Nono

Taking a closer look at the case, it reminds me of a helmet from Dead Space 2, lol.

Right...It looks so professional. It looks perfect, like it doesn't collect a single spec of dust. Not to mention it is huge and has a crap-ton of room in it.

You know, I never thought of that. Now that you mention it. There is quite the resemblance. I also thought that my cases ears might be getting cold? >_<

Nice work there. How long did it take you to build?

Great build!The case looks like a spaceship server Tongue! But I would prefer an AMD CPU. They are cheaper and at the same GHz as most Intel's do.
