The New Cases Gallery

looks sweet Evo ^

the best 300 ive seen, and definately the most powerful.

its amazing to think that that 970 runs at less than 65'c under 8 hours load on that single rad :)

Ok... Finally found a spare hour to transfer my rig from my P182 into my HAF 932 last night so here's a couple of (really poor quality) pics - no flash on my phone (not an iphone, just a phone lol) so it didn't like the artififial light much!

Here's a quick reminder of what it all looked like in the 182:

I knew there was a fan in front of the centre HDD rack, but when I took it apart last night I found that it was a Noctua NF-S12B so I swapped that with the generic pants fan on my Ultra 120 :)

I dunno how most of you go about things when you're doing a case swap/install but all my innards just ended up piled up on the table LOL

Got the PSU and MOBO in - the MOBO feels SO small in this case - there's so much space to work with around it, it's crazy lol

cards-in.jpg

Nothing much to say with this pic, just slapped the 4770 and Audigy back in... the tool-less design on the PCI brackets is fine in theory, but it doesn't hold the cards still and I found that quite annoying and somewhat unnerving

Routed the PSU and SATA cables as best I could but I found that this case isn't as good for cable management as the P182 as it is so much deeper front-to-back, so the cables always have a long way to travel no matter which way you try to route them :(

Anyway - that's my new case :) it's so much quieter than the P182 as I had 6 120mm fans inside there and it did sound quite loud... The HAF with just the 3 220mm and one 140mm (plus the 120mm cpu fan) is so much quieter :) plus my idle temps have dropped from Core 1 @ 48c / Core 2 @ 42c to Core 1 @ 39c / Core 2 @ 32c - now this could be a combination of the case plus the different fan on the HSF but either way, I'm happy with a 10c temp drop!!! :)

My recent overclock bundle + GTX580 project from OC. I kept the original Antec 900 case i had and did a few mods with it (bigger window and new front fans + grills).

It seems to me you are blocking your airflow with that speaker on top of the big fan :)
 
There is currently no big fan on the top :P im waiting on the replacement due to the previous one breaking down....... but as soon as its fitted the speakers going to be wall mounted :)

quite like the look of that case - loving the fan controller - looks badass :)

Need to upload a new picture of the inside of mine - had a fiddle with my cables and got them routed a lot better now... my son seems to've hidden my phone usb cable though... bear with me lol
