QUOTE(Kaisyuko @ Jun 14 2007, 09:54 PM) is not cant fit it... is the tempreture prob.... the tech told me the flow is not that good....so i want ask what do you guys think? QUOTE(@meno @ Jun 14 2007, 10:23 PM) Centurion 5's intake is crap. 80mm is not sufficient. If you wanna use that case with ur 8800gts, i would reccommend a side intake mod at least. I've just set up a system with that case and the front 80mm fan is just slightly better than those i-cutes which have trouble putting candles out. for me there are 2 ways of solving these kind of problem; - get a good ventilation case - MOD

instead of spending hundreds on a new case...i suggest spending around RM100 for mods (ask ianho to do it for u) -120mm intake (or exhaust but i think intake better) at the sidepanel right where the GC is.. -top 120mm exhaust. balance use to buy the fans and grills/ filter This post has been edited by mADmAN: Jun 14 2007, 10:46 PM

QUOTE(Lemmings @ Jun 15 2007, 10:02 PM) sidepanel as in transparent? Windowed side panels(means with a transparent window). If you purchase only the windowed sidepanel, the price should be around RM140 if i've not mistaken.

I was saying kinda hard to choose the designs since those 4 designs looks the same. There are actually 2 designs that looks the same, the difference is just a thing that looks like a small little window. What's that thing?

What's that thing? oic..do u mean small window at the bottom left corner?  that window is for certain casing that come with side patent cooling system, i.e. PC-G7

QUOTE(james2306 @ Jun 16 2007, 07:27 PM) that window is just normal Mesh... so what kind of design do u expect anyway? that mesh will allow the hot air to be sucked out using that patent side cooling.. or we can reverse the fan so that the mesh will let the fresh air to be sucked in and it can also be used as a filter.. some people prefer not to use the patent side cooling, like myself since it will block my view to the hardware inside.. so i just need to use the other sidepanel, which only got normal big window..

That also depend the heat level of the gc used ... if the case fit with extra hot producing gc ... a side patent fan is a big help that doesn't cost anything for 5 degrees straight out from the box ..
of course for aesthetic look it would be better without the side fan ,,,,
