Hi guys, need some advice here. Now I've been using Gigaybyte Aurora casing (not 570) for quite sometime. I can say that the air flow inside the casing is not very good especially the front intake. First there is grill that IMO actually block the air, and then there is the HDD cage, with just holes to allow intake air to flow. Now I'm considering several options:

a) modding, to cut off the grill and some part of the HDD cage to allow more air (perhaps this can reduce noise too) - disadvantage is I don't have the equipment

b) buy a new casing; I'm looking at CM690 2 Advanced. Seems good to me, though I would like to look at cable management too.

c) get a water cooling set instead; expensive, but investment will surely last in the long run.

which option should I take?

Thanks

Thanks for the advice. I've considered to do the BTX mod too, but in the end I think watercooling is much more fun to play After I'm done setting up the watercooling set, maybe I can start working on modding, especially on the fan grill
