Hi all!

I currently have a PC-101B (identical to a V1000 inside) and was wondering if a PC6077 (similar to the PC-65 i believe) was any better for cooling and ease of installation?

The 101's been great - but along with my 680i i've found mounting high performance cooling to the board impossible due to the compact nature of the case. The part of the case that seperates the mobo section from the psu is what is actually giving me the most grief but i don't really wanna cut it for the sake of 3-5 extra mm's!

With the PC6077 all being in one zone there seems to be a little more room for manoeuvre available.

Are you looking at the case up for sale in MM?

Possibly! ;) :D

I'd also been looking at the A16 which is pretty much identical but has 120mm fans rather than 80's.

Got a load of sharkoon 120's on their way so would ideally like a case to use and abuse them in!

I picked up an A16 a few weeks back. Replaced the fans for Yate Loons at 7v and it's pretty quiet. The gfx exhaust fan doesn't seem to do much though, and the rear exhaust is about 1cm away from my Tuniq Tower.

My temperatures are ok, and I am happy with the case. But I don't think it's the best cooled case you can get. I was also looking at the Silverstone TJ09 - but this was considerably cheaper.

You made me pmsl :( now I have to find some clean jeans.

edit: by the way does anybody have any thoughts on the cooling capacity of the v600? Thinking of getting one in a few weeks. Also tempted by the black g50 if I can find anywhere that has the black ones in stock for a reasonalbe price. Ohh A05b.
