No joke. I would put the CPU on the floor but then it would get more dust and I wouldn't be able to see it, kinda defeats the purpose of an acrylic window.
Solution is getting an Ikea Jerker!
The CPU might short out if you put it on the floor, especially when all that dust gets between it and the heatsink.
Lian Li case
Skulltrail mobo
2 x QX9775 CPUs clocked to 4.2GHZ (gives me a total of 33.6GHZ !!!)
2 x 9800GX2s
8GB 1333MGHZ DDR3s
4 Raptors drives in RAID 0 config
Zalman watercooling
Thermaltake 1200w PSU
i haven't OC'd this one yet, no need. previous setups i've had include a AMD 2100+XP processor OC'd to 2400MHz actual speed (the particular chip was known for being able to do that, think i still have it no mobo tho) and a dual AMD 1800+XP system built about 4-5 years ago. Both of the above were water cooled.

I"m thinking about throwing in another 19" monitor...
But yeah, CPU is deffinetely not going on the floor.
Why the hell does everyone buy Lian Li cases? I think they're kind of blan..
Lian Li were top of the line cases a few years back simply because they were one of the VERY few that were all aluminum (much better heat dissipation plus lightweight) vs. the steel cases (acts like an oven and heavy) that everyone else made. They were also one of the first to implement a modular mobo tray. They were also extremely well crafted and durable, typically using a brushed aluminum exterior.
I bought the one I have now 8 years ago and other than a few tiny scratches, this thing still looks brand new when I clean it out.
Google Lian Li and any review you find will rave about the company and their cases.
I'll never buy anything but Lian Li again, if mine ever gives up that is
