I really didn't have much of a heating problem but was tired of sitting in front of my computer freezing my hands off trying to keep it running cool. I took the half of the double wide project that hadn't been chopped up yet and transfered my p4 set up in to it. This case has 2 80mm in back and 2 80mm in front. Wrapped all the wiring in uv clear flat wrap and what could be stealthed was. All fans are running full bore and seem to be moving a chunk of air. But dang it the temps are running the same as in the other case. Seemed like a lot of trouble for naught. I have already cleaned the system just last week and regreased the heatsink for the cpu and reinstalled it. I used artic silver 5.
I have some of that poster board that is foam in the middle and paper on both sides. I was thinking of making a shelf like partition that would seperate the bottom half from the top have just above the vid card. This poster board is cheap and easy to cut out. So getting full coverage is not a problem. I would then add a fan standing up in the front of the 5 1/4 bays to pull air in to the top half. Since the two fans in the back are stack verticly I could have one in the bottom section and one in the top.
Now that you are as confused as I am any suggestions?
