For now you can leave the cable under the vid card ,BUT when you have the $$ buy the extension , really don't like "between the ram stix" :shadedshu
AS for the Harddrive and 4 fans all running off one molex power cable :eek::shadedshu
run the Hdd on it's own Please;)

Hehehe, well its not between them, its actually round the side of the ram stix, in the space between the CPU cooler and the ram slots. The wire is under the end of the X1900XT (So just touching the plastic) but isn't tight round it. The end of the wire is just bent round the CPU fan and into the slot. I will have pictures soon hopefully.

Thanks for your advice Frogger and thankyou ALL for helping me out, im sitting here now with my Antec 900 purring (Quite loudly might i add) with a graphics card and CPU 10*C cooler at idle, i just gotta work on those Vregs. :ohwell:

39*C GPU Idle
44*C Vreg idle
30*C Motherboard
24-27*C CPU idle

What do you think of those temps guys? My X1900XT is not overlocked or anything, should my temps be better or are they good? Just need that last bit of reassurance that all this has been worth it so let me know what you think d00ds!

Thanks a lot all, :D
