[QUOTE="r32godzilla, post: 54506, member: 11601"] Ok I bought a couple for case fans on the weekend. They are an 8cm and 12cm Coolermaster LED silent. Installed them both and running under load using Prime 95 the CPU temperature was maxing out at 45c with ambient temperature of 20c. Currently the case is configured as follows: Front lower case intake: Coolermaster 8cm LED Silent Front upper case intake: removed 2 x 5 1/4 bays and cable tied the Coolermaster 12cm LED Silent at the front of the bays. Have a huge intake sucking in cool air. Not pretty but seems to work VERY well. CPU cooler: Variable speed Gigabyte Neon 775 Pro PSU cooling: Dual 8cm variable speed fans in Altrix 650 PSU. Rear middle case extraction: Thermaltake Smart Case II 12cm variable speed. Not bad for the furnace like P4EE. Will have to do some more testing now and see hwo it goes back in the loungeroom entertainment cabinet. [/QUOTE]
