Silverstone Fortress FT02B-W Owners, Your thought's please!!!

Finally got my stuff!!!

The box is massive. Cant wait to put this babe together :)

Btw i have a IDE DVD rom/burner. Think i can still cable it via the back if i can get a cable long enough?

Is that why most have put the Rom Bay so low in the front of the case?
 
That me put the beast together phew. I know your meant to take your time cause i wanted to do a neat job but it took 6 hours.
I had some difficulty with the screws. You gotta use the screws it says not just any that fit which i learnt the hard way. The H50 was a bugger as well.

Anyway everything worked first time though ;)

Thanks to Chris for your input in temps and pics and everyone in discussion

My new temps are unreal. :cool:

What temps you getting? i was hitting 62-66c max during BFBC2 on the cores(my idle is 45-48c though lol but with HT on) at 4ghz on my i7 920 in a warm room and GTX580 hit 70c max.Are these good temps by the way people? i do not like the idle temps much and no idea why they are a bit warm.....my voltage is 1.275 and i do not have speedstep on as it doesn't seem to decrease it when idle/browsing net.

I would have gone for a FT02B-W if there wasn't anymore of my current left.

I have to say Silverstone probably will be my only brand for cases now in future. :p

This is my current idle temps. Got similar hardware as you apart from the gfx. Like you really pleased with the case and will be sticking with them if they bring out cases with similar concepts.

FINISHED!

But turns out my PSU is shot. That's another 10 day turnaround :/

Also, dude, reckon you have any more of the hotswap connectors sitting about?

Fraid not, only had the one that came with the case.
You can pick them up elsewhere though fairly cheaply.
