Default DIE crappy thermaltake airflow management >:D

me and a friend of mine started gutting my soprano after seeing my 104 CFM 120x38mm fans were barely moving any air due to the crap design, so... the grill in the front, cut out, the plastic parts in the door, BLOW TO CRAP WITH A KIFE HANDLE.
cut all fan grills, cut the back of the case to make way for cables... dropped temps 4C all around... will lap my Q6600 and flatten my TRUE some more (ran out of sandpaper last time)

i want to drop even more, my loads before this were 55 (highest core), now it's 51, and laying the case on it's side makes it go down to 49 (the whole pressure thing).
now i just have to lap and pressure mod, and i'm done for the summer
