Mods:
originally used an ECS motherboard. It was very stable but it had little support and was impossible to overclock. Saw the MAX mobo and fell in love with it, very nice. Just added a digital temp gauge to monitor case temps, for £4.99 off ebay - I couldn't resist it lol.

Bench results:

3Dmark06 - 9139

Counterstrike source (settings max, 1280x1024) - 319.79fps
Company of heroes (settings maxed with high detail) - 120.9fps

[quasar923]

hey jw but can u take out the thing that holds in the hdd bc i hear it blocks some air flow so i was thinking of when i get that case for my new build jsut to take the holder out and duck tape the hdd to the bottom of the case. let me know if u can do this. thanx

not needed m8 - the side plates have quite large holes in it and theres so much air it doesnt matter.

You would have to dremel the metal and it may reduce the strength of the case.

dont worry m8 - look at my temp gauges - the left one is top and the right is the bottom of the case.
