Would you do it?

I have an el cheapo case spare,Would you use this type/build of case for a build?

I'm talking about where the PSU mounts?..think it would get too hot?

The system i plan to build consists of..

Core 2 Duo E6300 1.86Ghz
Stock intel cooler
Gigabyte GA-G41M-Combo
1gb ram
250GB Sata2 HDD.
OCZ ModXStream Pro 600W

Using onboard graphics...so no extra heat from graphics card.

You should be fine.

It does have a fan grill on the other side of the case (not in picture) which i assume is for airflow to get to the PSU.

tidying the cables would be difficult.

I would ..... but that case looks far too thin.

Probably could turn it into a m-itx file server, can't see enough motherboard stand-offs.

Could be fun.... give it a shot

Not really bothered about cables to be honest,there will only be the 24 pin,4pin cpu and a Sata power cable comming from the PSU.

It is thin,but that's a good thing as there isn't much room on my sisters desk.

I meant to post this in the Cases section. :cool:
