Also love the double case design... ceadderman - what's the status of your behemoth creation? Last I heard it was going to be even bigger than Nessa's?

Thank you noticed that the colors were incorporated. The matherboard is Gigabyte X58A-OC, but to replace the x79-UD7

Hah, man, the first time I saw your setup I was thinking "how the heck did he get an external cooling setup to look like the HAF-X, that's wicked!" Then I realized the pics are side by side. It almost looks like you have an external enclosure with an additional waterloop. Nice job!

I need more freaking coffee, I'm posting too early. tongue.gif

Do you have a log for that build?

I really like that window, did you notice temp increases without the side fan?

I purchased a HAF 912 and have some questions.

Stock airflow seems pretty pitiful with the two stock fans, even at 100%, they don't move much air at all. I'm thinking the addition of some fans should help reduce temps and unlock some more overclocking potential.

Does anybody here have before and after temperature results from adding fans? I don't want to spend money on fans if they aren't going to make enough of a difference.

If I could reduce CPU/GPU temps by 5ºC I'd be ecstatic.

For weeks I ran with the two fans that same with it and the one Antec fan on my Kuhler.. I got a few C drop on my GPU and a HUGE drop in temp on my HDD's when I removed the filters and added a 140mm fan to the side and moved the second 120mm to the front

So no rear fan then? Just the grill?

I don't want to remove my fan filters because I live in the desert and the dust is already extreme. My computer is on about 4 hours a day and I still have to clean it at least once a month to keep the dust under control so it doesn't clog up my heatpipes on the CPU/GPU coolers and case fans. The dust here is just awful and I don't want to make it any worse by removing filters.

Kuhler was on the rear grille with a single 120mm fan as exhaust. thumb.gif

Well get the Magnetic filters, cos the stock one on the front effectively stops most of the air flow

I noticed today when I was swapping around some parts in my 922 that the front 200mm fan is making a ticking noise.  It seems to accelerate with the rpm and either goes away or is just very fast at 100%. Does this sound like something oil could fix and could someone point me to a guide if that's the case?

Also, does anyone have recommendations for dampening hdd vibration?

While I'm at it, would removing the pci slot covers around an axp ii cooler be worth it for temps vs the exta dust that would result from them being removed?
