That's a magnetic piece that you should place on if you do not have a fan... the Phenom Matx needs to draw air from the top and exhaust from the rear or bottom... might I ask what storage device did you mount on the system?

i have only a rear and a bottom fan which are included in the case.
err
only a 1TB WD Blue on front , above the PSU

That means that you should remove the plastic shroud at the bottom since you're exhausting air from the bottom with that default bottom fan, it should yield better temps after that wink.gif for a better effect, I suggest that you have dual 120mm fans or a single 200mm fan exhausting from the bottom as well as dual 120mm fans at the top drawing air in
Cool build! I can already picture the whole thing!! mind sharing more pictures? better yet please PM me so that we could make arrangements to post your build in BitFenix Malaysia FB page wink.gif

No Problems smile.gif how are the temps now that you've made the adjustments?
Both have the same internal layout, what happened??
Not too sure if it's because of the fan or not because I do not have any experience with the CMstorm Force 200mm.... what's the RPM of that fan? because the BitFenix Spectre Pro 200mm is only at max 900RPM... and another thing why stop at 200mm when the Prodigy fits 230mm tongue.gif not that many manufacturers have that fan size though

great,idle temp for cpu and gpu reduced by 10% rclxms.gif

I am suggesting that Phenom M outlook is much more solid and sexier, and my Current Prodigy is wobbling that I feel cheap  sad.gif

What's happen to your Phenom actually?
