My ambient temps is at 35-40 deg C too...I was asking about the fans because I have a GTX 480 SC coming and I'm very worried about the temps in my case. Thanks for the reply.

O got a Matx board due to money
WC holes don't count, and external rad mount too.
About the psu u cant have the fan downwards, no air intake.
M-ATX mobo in a full size case?Crazy. I rather liked the cabling options for my setup. (Asus CrossHair III). Cable wise my only complaint is the bays are close to the board. #8 the 90 degree drive bays would have been nicer.
4.) Not all PSu's have large 120mm's that face up(My TurboCool 650 doesn't.) You could actually reverse the fans too if you wanted. (Though a lot of people dont want to open their PSU probably.)
7.) My 1200 has 2 water cooling holes, and I have a Black Ice Extreme II mounted to the dual 120mm's in the back. What do you mean by no options?
Overall I love this case. it is indeed quite a beast.

Well most dont open their PSU due to the warranty seal on the outside and 2 screws being under the label usually, and also the fear of zapping themselves with the capacitors inside.

I didnt mean flip the PSU over, I meant reverse the fans.
How does a convenient location to mount a radiator, and 2 wc holes not count as water cooling support?

I've had my Twelve Hundred 'bout a month and a half now and its a cool case. Compared to my ThermalTake Armor its smaller which is a plus imo, looks much neater and fits everything with no problem. I narrowed my choices down to the HAF 932, SilverStone Raven RV01, and the Antec Twelve Hundred. Once I decided on a black interior (too much work painting) the HAF 932 was out. As for the Raven, didn't want to risk cooling with the inverted I/O design. In the end I made a good choice. Antec has new cases shipping this month (June 2010), see link.
