    Silverstone FT03... matx

    I cut a 120mm square hole out on the left even with my outside 7970 Card and put an intake 120mm fan. It dropped my GPU 5C

    Since you dont have a blower Graphics card I suppose you will be a tad quieter. But that is a lot of heat getting pured into the case. you need to find a way to get it out and throughthe CPU heatsink and exhaust.

    Silverstone FT03... matx

    Its better to go blower fans (most ref cards) on FT03. I think same for FT02+RV03. Its a sexy looking case and can handle a lot, but could be too noisy without tricky water cooling. I am getting ready to put an H60 on each of my 7970s.

    Silverstone FT03... matx

    I am running Noctua's 80mm up near GPU slot, 2x80's at bottom, 120mm custom hole on left at 2nd SLI/CF card, plus the 120 ontop of CD drive and finally Push/Pull 120 on the H80. My is load playing BF3 at 5760x1200. Thought about the FT02 or RV03 myself for better noise. Those 780's are...

    Silverstone FT03... matx

    Wow, thats awesome. I went straight to 80's to get my 7970's in there. should have tried with 120. Got temps a little lower by cutting a whole near the outside card intake with a 120 blowing in. Still need to do something with water to make this rig quieter.

    what kind of temps and noise are you seeing on the 680's? What are you using for cooling? I am thinking about adding 2x H60 for each GPU using DWOOD or RedMod.

    feedback on cooling in FT02 please

    I think this is an excellent idea. I have an ft02 on order and have 2x7970's. I may look into the 5.25 bays to house some rad coolers. You should add another 6950!

    Silverstone FT03... matx

    I am struggling with the sound from my 7970 CFs. Been running for over a year but I want to flash the GE bios and crank them up. Need more cooling and lower the noise. Thinking about Red Team Mod the GPUs but no room for more 120mm rads. Possibly getting a FT02 and new ATX board for better...

    GTX 680 vs. Radeon HD 7970 - Multi-Display Showdown @ [H]

    Was on the fence last year with 680 vs 7970 but for triple monitor the more Vram the better. I couldnt afford dual 4gb 680's so went with 2x7970 CF in my FT03. getting 60+fps in BF at 5760x1200 max settings.
