[QUOTE="mattmannz, post: 564364, member: 100457"] That's a nice setup. I have the same case with a Gigabyte EP35DSR motherboard, looks similar to yours. I am running a passive 8600GT and a dual core 2.8ghz cpu with a similar cooler. I have a 120mm ball bearing fan on the top of mine and didn't quite have enough clearance issues so had to relieve the case lid to allow the fan to vent out. I am using a controller to run the fan very slowly. I am running three hard drives and a different PSU to your. My stock PSU died and I found a replacement, can't remember the brand, but it has an ultra quiet fan as the original was probably the noisiest component. The interior gets very hot but the CPU runs quite cool, doesn't get above 50c at full load and is rock solid. Matt. [/QUOTE]
