the way I c it...

if you have a 7year old case there is no really meaning to care so much about it.... drill some holes and remove any uneccesary metal pieces to make it more open.

I'm not hesitating because I care about it...I'm hesitating because I don't think that would have a notable effect.


Also, I get like 40oC when browsing the forums, staying on chat, on Y!Messenger and watching a Youtube movie at the same time...


And I just saw that I don't have either a rear exhaust nor a front intake fan...So which one of those is more important? Cause I only have 1 fan.



EDIT: Now this is interesting...with the side panel off I get 32 oC at idle.

they are both kinda ecually same of importance.... though I think that an intake fan and an exhaust "hole" would be best in your scenario.

though holes and good airflow is really of great importance.


(were kinda making this the new computers thread but wtf :P )


anyhow I took some photos of my pc and desktop as it looks like atm... I'll take some more when I've installed the v8 (wich I hope that I'' get tomorrow.) and after I've made some cable management

Down to 29oC now with the side panel off...


Also, you got some cooling in there mate...what cooler is that "freezer"?

And nice case by the way.

And running prime95 for ~5 mins now and it stopped at 43oC.

And by placing the 120mm fan vertically just sitting on the GPU I got it to 40oC

I think it says:

artic cooling 64 freezer or something

on the cpu cooler. it is not a very good cooler.... I wanted the one "below" but it doesnt fit for am2 processors

that is my 2nd pc btw....

How's that Zalman working?

the zalman is really good.


its always at like 25 and maby 35 when playing games and so on.

Without the side panel it never goes over 43oC so I have to come up with a solution if I don't want to let my pc opened up.

saw a hole in the side and add "anti dust net" to cover it.

it would be like having the side open though you wouldnt get a bunch of dust in it.

bitches and hoe admins changed my avvy.
