Hi, anyone here Cougar QBX owner here?
If so, would you guys mind sharing your rig here biggrin.gif

I'm satisfied with the case so far. However, the problem is that the CPU is running a little too hot when playing games and video editing.
The noise is an issues too.

My current temperature :

Processor : 40~45c (idle/light) and 70+ (gaming/editing video)
GPU : 31c (idle/light) and 50c (max out stress test)

At the moment, I currently have a 120mm radiator mounted on the side removable panel for my GPU but is it possible to add another 120mm AIO for the processor?
Since the side panel is mounted with 120mm AIO, it totally blocks the fresh air for the CPU cooler and instead now getting warm air pushing out from the radiator.

I have one 120mm and 92mm fans as intake at the bottom and another two 120mm fans as exhaust at the top. I had to remove the 92mm rear fan as it won't fit...blocked by the radiator mounted on the side.

Is it possbile to mount another 120mm AIO on the side removable panel?
I'm thinking of changing to SFF modular power supply to make more space inside the case.

If I can mount another AIO inside the case, I probably can remove one fan for both bottom and top to lowers the noise level.
