So I have been reading up on this and I would love to have more intake in my case. Here is my case set up:
Intake:
Front 230mm
Bottom 120
Exhaust:
Top 230
Rear 120
Video Card Back Block 120
Internal:
Kaze 3000 on the Megahalems
2 120's on the HDD rack
2 60mm on MB
I have read about mounting my PSU on the top and remove the top 230's all together then putting in a 120 where the PSU used to be on the bottom. What would be the advatages/disadvatages to a top mounted PSU? I guess I could also save up ~$200 and get Water Cooling Petra's Tech Shop... I have managed to get my Vreg temp down to ~65C with the new 60mm fan on it which is ok. I reseated my HS and reapplied thermal compound and my temps are a lot closer. let me know what you guys think I should shoot for... Also does anyone have any experience with sound dampening a case? I have a lot of fans and would like to quiet it down some... I was thinking something like AcoustiPackâ„¢ Lite Professional Sound Dampening Pack (APL) - FrozenCPU.com
