Yup and my GPUs cause a lot of it. My case has 5 120mm fans in t - even though they're noctuas it's still quite loud. I've got a corsair H60 coming in the post so hopefully that will be pretty quiet too

well the GTX260 fans spin up automatically when they get hot, The ATCS840 comes with a large box you can fit a 120mm fan too that fits over the rear expansion slots to suck air out and help cool the cards hot exhausts.

There was very little difference between them cooling wise based on all the reviews I read, so I didn't see the point spending the extra.
Not sure if that's something in the GPU's BIOS (or equivalent of), but I use EVGA Precision (same kind of thing as MSI Afterburner) and I just manually control the fans depending on the game. For example in Mass Effect I just leave them both at 45%. I have them jsut boot up to 40%. They 65nm idles at about 55C with the 55nm one at about 50C.

Stulid take it you didnt get it from that place I told you about as your getting silver one?
Opps nm saw your post above hehe I should really read all post before commenting lol. Are you using a bottom fan in the 840 if so how you managing with the psu filter I had mine modded so the filter comes out the back.

they only had black
but persistence paid offI dont use a bottom fan, I find the stock cooling is more than enough.
Black, yes, from one place, Silver requires emailing coolermaster and they will sort you out

Its a easy enough mod to do m8 mine is based on a utube vid I saw of the mod. TBH im not sure how effect it is though cleaned my filters other day and there was no dust on the psu filter will have to check the psu out to see if there is any dust in it.
£39 for silver from coolermaster factory, I bet some dutchy is shaping Aluminum for me as we speak, i would rather not bodge my £150 case with a hacksaw/jigsaw, but rather get it made direct at the factory with precision laser cutting etc.
Most window mods i see use a window rubber to hold it in place, this looks **** in my opinion, a genuine panel will have the window secured with quality fittings.
this is how a Coolermaster window should be fitted - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost.php?p=18466403&postcount=2 - not a crummy window rubber in sight.

Well had a HAF 932 before had a window mod put into it but had the window mounted outside using M3 hex bots and nuts on the back looked dam good just like you have in the pic above. I agree with the window rubber I dont like it either but each to their own.
lots of people have been saying the same thing i thought the h70 having an extra fan would have made a huge difference to the others but its only just a bit better than the others
