post #261 of 7509
DAAANNGGG IT

Need a quick opinion. I have all my parts ready to go and am still waiting for the black prodigy on Newegg pre-order. I originally wanted the white but switched over when I thought I missed out on all the stock. Also I really prefer the mesh front on the black version. Should I just order the white and have it overnighted to start my build tomorrow, is there anyway to remove the lame front panel? Or should I just hold off and have the black one get here while I'm on vacation and build it when I get back?

Might help push me one way or the other.

The white really isn't lacking in airflow...if it really bothers you, there are things that can be done to increase the front airflow slightly, but it is unnecessary...I say get what you want, it's a personal choice and performance-wise, they are very similar...

Ok thanks.

I think i still need to think a bit tho before i purchase it, just taked a look of few reviews and seems like silvertone has cut corners slightly with strider plus series and used cheapo teapo caps at secondary side, cant say that have heard anything but bad from those capacitors..

I try again:P


I've asked similar queston before, but I need to ask on some opinions and escpacially for you guy who got the case.

I need to cool a 670 or 680, and a 3570 K.

so..

opt 1:240x30 in the roof, 200mm rad in front.

opt2:240x60 rad in top , 120/140( either 30,45 or 60mm thick) in the front

opt3: just 240 x60 ra in top and a 230 fan in front.

opt4: h100 and let the 670/680 just run with the stock cooler
