I was thinking of getting the same cooler/case combo as you (maybe the Sniper instead, depends on the sales). How is the Scout and Mugen 2 combo?

I found that a push / pull doesn't work that good with the mugen in my case. Since your case is setup like mine and the exhaust fan is so close to the pull fan i'd suggest this. This is what I did on my antec 902. I moved the intake fans right in front of push fan on the mugen 2.(not sure if you can do this) I also added a more higher powered on the heat sink.(silverstone 110cfm with fan controller) This little combo took my temps down to 26c - 27c on idle. And at full load 39c - 40c now. Its pretty crazy. Before I was at 30c - 32c idle and about 42 - 43c load.

So how much of a difference did it make in your case after you took it off?
