[QUOTE="Bloodlust, post: 3959945, member: 97203"] Glad you brought this up Gayan. My current cooling config is like this. 1. 120mm fan at the front, in front of the HDD cage blowing in to the case. Although thr's a solid plastic panel blocking the intake path of this fan. 2. 80mm side fan right next to the VGA, exhausting. I can feel hot air coming out of this. 3. 80mm rear fan blowing in, giving air to the CPU Cooler which also blows to the front of the case. 4. 130mm fan on the bottom of PSU at the top of the case, exhausting. I think thr's a lot of room for improvement. a. Remove the front panel to create an air intake path? b. Make the side fan blow air into the case, directly on to the GTX 295? c. Reverse both the CPU Cooler and the rear exhaust fan? The GTX 295 cores run to arnd 88 and 92 C under load. I ordered an EVGA backplate which supposedly takes off arnd 20 C. The GPU cores idle around 80 C. CPU is relatively quite cool. Arnd (50 - 60 C). The motherboard heatpipes get very hot as well. A penny for your thoughts guys? [/QUOTE]
