Why do cases still come with 5.25" bays?

Not bad other wise...


NZXT still using all aluminum designs?

I think for fan controllers and bay resevors ...................

Sharp case though, the Giga OC board would be off the chain in that

I had the Zero, was an aluminum case and ran VERY cool. Case was like a giant heatsink.

Slight delay in assembly...I decided against a window side and I'm swapping out case fans for red led models. There will be a soft red glow visible from all screenage. Thinking of orienting the cooler so the 200mm top case fan draws the air upwards and out.

Installation of the Phanteks cooler proved to be a pain in the a$$...too many obstructions on this Classified mb. This configuration is the only way it will semi-fit.











These temps are just idle...having a bit of a problem with the rig atm. Just before dis-assembling the old pc to swap out parts I began to experience random bluescreens. Now, with fresh drives, memory and OS it will bluescreen at the drop of a hat at default settings. Hoping the mb is not going south.



Question - What should the NB temps be on this mb at default settings? It's showing around 105 degrees in bios within minutes of start-up.

EDIT: Problem solved...it is these damn Zotac 560 Ti video cards. Jerked them out and installed the trusty 5850 and she's running sweet now.

I don't recall seeing NB temps that high tho Rick, may need to inspect contact and TIM just to be safe.

Sexy handywork bro

Have to get to bed now, but a quick OC shows me the air cooler is holding it's own.
