Have you got the H100 fans pulling air in or out of the case?

Its pulling out of the case , but fans are fitted onthe top compartement.

Seems like you need the H100 fans sucking air from outside/top, and mount a 120mm or whatever on this side panel to blow air out of the case from the 480's (if there is enough room).
If that is not possible then reverse the front fan to blow air out of the front away from the 480's, which will in turn keep your legs warm :)
After that see what your temps are.
 
Have the H100 sucking air from inside the case. (As hot air rises)

Then have a 120mm blowing outside away from the 480's.

Leave the front fan blowing inwards.

If you still have the original fan from the front i would fit that to the side panel, sucking air away from the PC.
 
The H100 would be best sucking fresh air from outside the case (fans on top of radiator pushing air through the radiator into the case).The way you have them sucking air out of the case the heat from the 480's is been sucked through the rad (heating the rad up).

The case rear fan needs to be exhausting the hot air out of the case & the front case fan intaking fresh air into the case.
 
Right just turn H100 fans to push air from outside and noticed a decrease on temps of 4-5c. idle temps are 30c and allways one core going mad at 37c .thanks guys

To be honest i wanted to keep the window , as the mesh panel ruins the look of the case .
But i suppose that the cost of having 2 x gtx480 is having fans next to it.
Right next is mesh panel with stock corsair 200mm blowing out right?
I`ll report shortly.
Again thanks guys.
 
Right got the side panel with the corsair 200mm fan on it , and also fitted a zalman 120mm fan just below the dvd-rom drive.
Overall it helped cpu temps , they are idle at 30-33c and one core as allways going mad at 38c no matter what.
As for gtx480`s the bottom card now idles @ 55c and top @ 60c.
Should I be happy with these temps?
Also should I make side 200mm fan intake?
Keep in mind everything is @ stock speeds (cpu/gpu`s).
Next got turn cpu level up option to 3.8ghz to see temps.
 
What he means is that OCCT/IBT/Linx will push the system harder than P95 will, giving a sterner test of stability, which in turn will generate more heat. It will give you an idea of worst case scenario for both stress and heat.
