Im getting a titan goliath with antec 902 and 4870/2 cards.I hear those cards run very hot , the room where the pc will be situated is a hot room .
Do you think there will be a danger of this system over heating?

If you can it might be worth adding a few more fans.
How hot is the room.

Im not sure what the temperature is.What would you suggest ? I add a side fan ?

Generally the side fan on the Antec does little to improve performance

Your best bet is just checking your temps to see how it's performing. If your room is really that hot just turn down your radiator or open a window. With the fans on high to be on the safe side I'd bet you're ok but keep an eye on it unless your room is like 30+ degrees.

How about a portable air conditioner for my room?

Yes please, that'd be lovely.
Thanks.

If you're getting problems cooling then yeah sure, it's a good option. I'm actually worried for you that it's that warm. Make sure you get plenty of fluids. :cool:

wow I'm glad I was working while that video was playing - 4 minutes in before I had any idea what it had to do with the thread apart from its title
