Nah according to that pic, your side panel fan is blowing air out. Look up top at your cpu HSF and the fan behind it, see the way those fan blades are? Yeah those are exhausting, see the way your side panel fan blades are? Yeah it's exhausting. Flip that fan around and throw some cool air on your cards

Possibly for my graphics cards, but my motherboard and cpu seems to be near enough the same as before though.

Just bought a Inwin Iron Clad full size atx. My mid size tower just aint got the room i need these days, pretty happy with the space in the ironclad and my mobo temps are much cooler with the 220mm side fan, Not noisy either.

Its still a virgin case atm totally unmodded, But im upgrading to skt 1155 sandy bridge in jan-feb time, So the modding will comence after that.

Just minor question, how do you upload bigger pictures on here? I don't like having to upload my images to another place (where their quality is down-grade) to post images when it is somehow possible to upload it here with most of it's quality still there.
