P183/P193 and cpu coolers

[adidan]

I would recommend getting the P183 because it should fit most CPU coolers on the market.

I'm very pleased with my newly purchased P183, it fits my uber cooler and although the temps are roughly the same as my last modded case the noise is drastically reduced, nowhere near the same amount of dust will get in and it looks smashing IMO.

But then I'm not a fan of side case fans either.

First post and one for the record. I have a 193 case. I've switched off one of the top fans and I don't need to run the BIG BOY fan either. I've got an I7 920 with a mild OC at the moment at 3.8GHz beneath a Scythe Mugen 2 and for much of the time my temps are running 43-46C. The Scythe Cooler is brill! It runs mostly around 440 mark and not the 1400 it is capable of except when under 100% load in Prime 95! Though I'm due to receive new 120mm fans next week to experiment with for the rear of the case and the cooler which I believe will be capable of providing higher air pressure to force more air through the fins and case screen at any given rpm at arguably lower decibels.

I fitted a Mugen 2 in my P193 and I couldn't get the side-panel back on - how did you manage it?
