It didn't affect my temps when I removed the unused trays, really. But that's just me.

I didnt think it would affect temps at all, then again we both have the hard drive accessory fans installed, I would guess that without the extra fans it may help to remove the unused bays

I tried it before I installed the new fans, as well. No change whatsoever.

I've also noticed some screws in the top of the HDD cage. Is this so you can remove it? If so, that is very helpful for modders. Unlike the HAF 932 where you have to cut it out.

I don't think I can use that Cosmos fan cover for the bottom fan, and two fans in the HDD cage. It might hit the fan on the bottom of the cage.

His motherboard doesn't seem very wide. My 680i LT is a bit closer to the cut out.

I know someone who made the top 230mm fan closest to the drive bay cage an intake, and got even better results than when disabling it. It is different for everyone, it can't hurt to test it out and see which is the best. I know for me, making it an intake was ineffective.

Chunky_Chimp

I've never seen watercooling parts like that before... that's REALLY nice how it worked out. Also, don't worry about your english (I've seen worse, believe me). Make sure to fill out your system specs in your signature in the user control panel by clicking Add System on the left side. Added to the list ahead of time.

Did they install it in the side panel for you or did you just buy the bolt-on kit and do it yourself? Just wondering because I was considering buying that window as well since I liked it's full size. They quoted me about $100 for them to install it in my side panel if I sent it to them but I'm going to install one myself or have this other guy I know do it for less.

Mattb2e

I could have installed it myself for 49.99, but I had them install the side panel as I dont have the necessary tools to do it myself for $100.
