just wish to share some of my diy job with you guys.  after reading all these thread about air cooling and air flow, somehow i got an idea to mod my scythe ninja. i cut off 2 piece of card board ( cut from my old cd rom box ), use double sided tape and attach to the upper and bottom part of my scythe ninja. as show in the pic  before  after after adding the 2 card boards, the hot air flow directly to the exhaust fan. result: my cpu temp drop 2-4 degree after the mod.  thats all for today, please feel free to comment.  cheers!

it will and depend on how cramp it becomes that determine the airflow of the case...

Wouldn't using acrylic cause heat built up...why not try aluminium or other conductor?

Because arcylics is not build to be a heat conductor such as aluminium & copper... That's why u can't use arcylic casings, they sucks!  Full aluminium casings is still the best... ***Ek eleh, ko ni cakap pasal arcylic ni, ko sendiri pakai casing lian li full aluminium!
Apahal plak nak sokong sokong casing arcylic? This post has been edited by sHawTY: Dec 22 2006, 12:54 AM |

haha if u case has alot of heat component like the presshots, and 8800gtx sli, or anything that has a huge heat output, an acylic case has beeen known to bend coz of the heat, it becomes softer...

If i'm not mistaken, although the acrylic is not a heat conductor but heat from the fins will transfer to the acrylic in other to achieve thermal equilibrium(keseimbangan thermal). But due to the acrylic being a poor heat conductor the heat build up in the acrylic will not disipate to the air surrounding.
Just my 2 cents...
