Bitfenix Prodigy Standard Black Side Panel

[DarthOps]

Hi,

I ordered the CaseKing version of the prodigy which comes with the windowed side panel as standard. I've found that, even with fairly good airflow in the case, that my Gigabyte 7950 WF3's fans sit too close to the perspex side and without ventelation the card is getting really hot.

Do you know where I could source an original black mesh side for the prodigy?

I spoke to Bitfenix's Stulid and he suggested posting here.

Thanks

Interested/confident in drilling some ventilation holes in the perspex?

Not particularly lol, I was hoping that I wouldn't have to resort to that but it seems like it's likely. Any tips on carrying out the task?

I would suggest posting in the customer service section asking if they can source the sidepanel you want.

I linked to that other thread as an example.

I had the exact same case, i contacted bitfenix and told them this case came with a window panel and i want the vent panel

In the email to them, put your postal address, the serial number of case and copy of the invoice to:
thomas kuhlenbach - europe rep
Without those he wont do anything and saves a couple of email responses back and forth then
He should respond in a couple of days... A good guy to keep in your address book if you have a bitfenix case
