Nexus Breeze Case 500w

I'm thinking of getting this case for:
Conroe E6600
Probably Intel Badaxe Mobo
IceQ3 X1900xt
Scythe Ninja

I've read great reviews for the PSU, the case sounds decent too - Silence is one of the nice bits about it.

Is it good? £130ish inc. 500Watt PSU...
Will heat be a big issue, seeing as only the PSU and perhaps the GPU exhausting out. I like the looks, just need to know if it's worth the deal.

Will be OC E6600 to 3.2 to 3.6ish, so kinda worried about heat.

but....

CA-008-TG Tagan TG530-U15 530W ATX2.01 Easycon SLi Compliant Modular Silent PSU (CA-008-TG)
£61.95 £61.95
CA-038-LL Lian-Li PC-7 PLUS Silver Aluminium Midi-Tower Case (No PSU) (CA-038-LL)
£47.95 £47.95
Subtotal £109.90
VAT £19.24
Total £129.14

F.T.w

That's my other option, but with a Seasonic 500W.

I'm sure the E6600 wouldn't break a sweat but I do turn my pc on for 24/7 and just wondering if the case temp will build up and gets "trapped" in.

Also, the HDD is not really cooled from the diagram Nexus provided on their site, perhaps a HDD enclosure and put it in the 5.25" bay?

The silence reviewed on this case is excellent on many sites, I've my CPU 8" away from my bed....

Hmm... I would think clocking the E6600 to 3.2-3.6 is massive overclock, is it?

See, the Akasa is best for cooling but over budget if I inc a PSU...

Anyone any idea how cool their system is in the Nexus Breeze case?

 

[Mr Jones]

Hmm... looks like I'd have to think twice - reason I like that is the looks of the case, the price + PSU. The silence is also very appealing...

I might just stick with the PC-7+ with a Seasonic 500.

The HiS IceQ cooler is apparently better than the stock, the price is also nice IMO.
