Re: HTPC Case, fans, heatsink help
Thanks. I will look some more. I'm just trying to keep it as low budget as possible. The few reviews I did find made it seem like a decent case, but there were a couple that got their case with dead hot swap boards. If the hot swap boards can be removed, and just the trays used to hold hdd's, I'm good with that.
Any case recommendations under $100?
Thanks again,
Outlaw

Re: HTPC Case, fans, heatsink help
Well, I got a Cooler Master Centurion 590. Just finished swapping the parts. So far so good. I did a push/pull exhaust with the H50 and it is now running idle at 25 - 32c and load for almost 10min was 40-41c. And the Bluray Rom is louder then the fans.
