    Grave or Temp

    OK just a few questions :

    AMD64 and MBO,

    2 hours working idle - open case = MBO 35c stable, CPU 40 going to stable 39c temperature.
    - closed = MBO 39c (and up),CPU 42.5 (and up)

    I it possible to get this relaxing temperature with closed case?

    I have 4 coolers (only one case cooler working at the moment) ready to go in.

    Could you please recommend which one should cool and which one should suck air.

    I have one place for cooling above from CPU, 2x place in the nose of the inside front and I have side space,one that has that thing,Hmm, I think you call this thing a duckt or something like this.

    Also this side duckt (plastic trumpet inside) is not exactly shooting in direction of my Zalman cooler but slightly above. Question, should I remove this inside plastic duckt and rather place cooler instead in his place? (it has 4 screws but,smaller distance then regular case cooler)

    Since all my 5.25 spaces are occupied with drives is there such thing as 3" device showing a CPU temperature?

    Or I could loose one HD case and use this, anyone owns this? : http://www.thermaltake.com/accessori...cano/a1845.htm

    Thanks

    you can get floppy sized bay temp probes,

    front and side fans should be blowing in and top and rear fans should be blowing out,if you have ducting on the side fan try and direct it towards the cpu,i prefer to have more airflow in than out(if using fan filters) as this stops dust getting sucked in through any holes or cracks in the case

    I'll second that (you want higher intake CFMs than exhaust - especially if you're filtering the intakes as that will obviously reduce your overall CFM)... Also - those temps aren't really that bad (assuming you aren't living in the arctic circle)

    Do you by any chance have any link for this thing?

    I ask because my dealer told me he only has for 5.25

    Just one more question guys.

    This duckt thing on my case. Barely a few people have seen this here.

    This thing is not so hot to best of my knowledge and therefore very rare.

    I ask this because I read in my manual of this case there is even cooler that comes before this duckt. Is this possible?

    Again I ask, because we don't have here 7.2cm coolers,so if this is good, I will have to order this from web dealer.

    I?m just not certain why this duckt is not exactly precisely shooting into my CPU's Zalman cooler,
    a just a bit above
