I organized my setup. RATE MY SETUP!!!

So, I finally decided to clean up my PC setup. I hope you all enjoy and make sure to rate my setup. I'll also take any advice anyone has to improve my setup. Thanks.


EDIT: I completely forgot to list my parts.

So, I have an Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 @2.5GHz. It isn't the best, but it works!

I've got a MSI Radeon HD 6570 1GB graphics card.

The motherboard is a HP Compaq 6000 Pro Microtower (I think)

I have two PSUs. One of them is the stock one (320watt) the other is a PSU out of my other PC (240watt). (The 240watt PSU is only used for my laptop HDD and my 250GB Desktop HDD)

As for storage, I have a 1TB Seagate Barracuda Desktop HDD, a 500GB Seagate Laptop HDD, a 250GB Desktop HDD, and a 160GB Seagate Barracuda Desktop HDD.

Oh, and I have a powerful fan on top of the 320watt PSU that just blows on me. lol

You know your PSU is weak when you have to add another just to power your HDDs... :P
Not a terrible rig, but you couldn't get some old case for free? There's gotta be someone around you that has an ancient PC they want to get rid of, maybe even someone you know. Or some business that deals in recycling of computer parts that might have some old case or partially gutted tower laying around in a corner that they can't get rid of.
That must get incredibly dusty in open air like that. Apart from that and it being an eyesore, I guess there's no issue with it, but if you can get a free case why not.

because you dont got a case keep an eye on your temps, or have a giant fan on it 24/7 when its on, just until you get the cash for a case. all i did was did an unofficial upgrade on my dell inspiron 3650, now im running crash n.sane trilogy, gtav, and many more great games, i can even run RE2remake

@huntertron1 No case is actually ideal for temperatures. Instead of circulating around a case the warm air is immediately blown away. All that case fans do is provide fresh air to the case, the cooling is done by the CPU/GPU heatsinks and fans.
The only thing is that you'll get less airflow over components that are passively cooked like the VRMs. But they don't get hot enough to need airflow, that's why they are passively cooled to begin with.
