| 455265 | 2006-05-16 09:53:00 | Case make sure you have good air flow,ie case has two fans, 1 back and 1 front so you dont have any temperture problems later on.120mm fans are good as they are quiter then 80mm fans,and move more air as well.Recommend a fan control to turn them down or up depending on the situation,ie internet,music,watching dvds down low,gameing can turn them up if you want as it will get hotter then. Makes them quiter as well which is really good .Can get a cheap one for like $20 nz. |

Cheers Kelem Where are you going to place the HTPC/MSE pc, lounge? I like the SFF cases, there are some nice little boxes out there, however my GT isnt as quiet as other more powerful cards. |
