no worries, m8 !

finally....

tzitzibp · Feb 4, 2008, 11:14 AM

Well, the first thing I did was removing the back fan and replacing it with one of the two UV 120mm fan. Then I removed one of the two HDD cages and installed a 120mm X 35mm fan at the bottom for extra intake. and finally I used the included fan bracket to install the second 120mm UV fan on the side of the front HDD cage.

So, now the setup is like this... 120mm fan - HDD - 140mm fan.

Later I will post pics....

tzitzibp · Feb 7, 2008, 06:50 PM

thanks, friend!

btw my case in the gallery has none of the features offered by the armor case or any of the modern cases around... imaging that the

XazerIII

I am using is about 6 years old and it was the super tower

of its time.... so cable management was a pain!

Cold Storm · Feb 7, 2008, 07:49 PM

I kind of feel the same way. I love my Armor, but wish I had the option of the new features like removable MB tray etc. I have the same cable management holes behind the motherboard tray, but mine were done with a dremel by me. But still happy with my decision at the time.

Very nice machine you built for your cousin. He should be very thankful and happy.

well, I have not powered this build up, yet. However, in my PC, on which I use the same mobo and the 9700 with an e6420, the temperatures are great.... The picture shows temps on current OC, while on idle!
