Got my dual cards installed.

I'm debating switching all my fans (2x200 and 4x120) to red LED's...

Alright guys, instead of starting a new thread I figured I'd ask here

I'm about to jump ship from my Phantom. I'm starting to get sort of disgusted with it's looks, the front door, and lack of side window. So after shopping around I'm really in love with the white 600T special. The parts would be from my sig rig so here's my question:

I would be moving all storage to a 5.25 bay converter and removing the original 3.5 bays so I can fit an Altec BigBoy up front. Will that be enough to keep my cards fairly cool?

Hard to say. The biggest issue I used to have with the 600T series was it's lack of GPU cooling. The main reason I finally bought one was the door mesh fan mounts.

My two cards top out under load at 58c/54c. This is with 4 fans mounted in the door blowing air directly on them.

I don't think changing the front cooling will have a huge impact. I've tried the antec bigboy (Had one in the door of an NZXT Vulcan) and its definitely better than the stock Corsair fan but not a lot better.

That's what I'm wondering. I do like the way yours looks but if I'm spending all that on extra fans plus the converter and giving up the window I might just hold out for a white Silverstone RV02.

I found that using cable ties to hold a fan in front of the 2 cards helped massively with my crossfire temps. They reach around 70c or a tiny bit over during Crysis 2 and are OC'ed to 950/1300. You can see I put the Noiseblocker fan between the bottom HDD rack and the 5.25 bay:

Can't hear them over the noise of the rest of the case fans. I bought 4 Bitfenix Spectres. They are fairly quiet. Door fans don't need huge CFM like cpu fans or rad fans require. They are there to provide a constant, even intake of external air and push it across the gpu's.

Decided to take the plunge and mod the top of the case to fit a 360 rad. Also got rid of the bay res and added a swiftech pump and res. It was a challenge routing the line from the pump to the res, but here's what I came up with.
