Say I've got a mid sized ATX tower and have all of my computer components up and running in it. I now switch all of the components into a full sized ATX tower. Which is more efficient for optimal airflow?
I would think that the full sized ATX tower would allow for the heat from the components to dissipate a bit easier, since there is much more room to breath inside the larger tower, but it also seems like the mid sized ATX tower would allow for the computer case fans to be closer to the components from the back and front of the case, thus the air intake and outtake is closer to the components...
What are your thoughts on optimal tower size?
