And here's a mesh side panel for it. Most people remove the mesh and put some acrylic in it.

I had to move back into my P180B from my A05N 2 HD4870s + Q6600 @ 1.48v + TX750 = everything except my hard drives getting wayyyyyy too hot. So hot that I got many lovely artifacts. Maybe once I go back to a single card I'll move back to the case or when I built a second rig I'll use it, but right now with all this hot hardware I just can't use it

Yeah the A05 has a pretty terrible dead zone in the case. No air movement at the top where the graphics card sits. My solution was to add a 120mm blow hole on top to keep things cool. Now everything is sitting pretty. My 4870 never goes over 60c during gaming.

All you need is a 4 1/2 hole saw, a drill and some patience. I bought a nice grill cover from frozencpu to keep things looking fresh.

Seriously though, this case with a blowhole will cool exceptionally well. You could even add 2x120mm blowholes on top. Now that would certainly keep your xfired 4870's happy.

I could do that, except then my 2nd card wouldn't fit, not enough space between the top of the case and the card

You sure? I remember the top of the A05 being a full inch from the top of the motherboard. You might be able to fit a couple of 20mm thick YateLoons in there.



I miss my A-05B.

With my 2nd card mounted it really wouldn't do any good even if I could fit a 20mm fan up there. I can just "suffer" with my P180B for now

How are you mounting those mid-fans? Does the case come with a bracket or is there a nice trick to do such job?

I modified the back of an antec 1200 drive cage fan holder to allow me to mount the fan on the rear. I then used zipties to mount two fans together.
