Just put one together week ago and this thing rocks if anyone has any questions about it would be happy to help answer them in any way I can. I have the 120MM xtreme turbine on the exhaust, it came with 140mm in the front and 250mm in the side. All 3 are running off the built in fan control which works flawless, I put in 2 chameleons for that extra little something, one is in front of the 140mm intake and another in the top 2 empty 5.25 drive bays for intake for powersupply. Works wonderfully and the blue led's look great.
 
what do you have running in there and what are the max temps on load when playing fear for your cpu?
 
Hello Mayhs, well here is the rundown, Athlon XP 3000 @ 2.167 stock, gig ram Ati x850xt @ 540.00 x 591.55 ( PE speeds ) 200 gig Western Digitial Hard drive. Ok my ati x850xt idles at 18 % fan speed @ 35C Core and 33C ambient. During fear with the fan still @18% fan speed max temp after 2 hours nonstop is 60-62C. With my old HP case I would have had to run fan speed @ 100% to keep the temps 65-70C. This case is superb.
 
Sorry missed the part where you asked about cpu temp, I am running thermaltake smart fan with temp sensor on my xp 3000. After 6 hours of straight gaming max temp recorded was 128F with the fan speed at just over 3000rpm

thank you...i really want this case but then again i really want a side window with a lot of neon lights :(
 
Hellos guys I just ran my system for 4 hours on all sorts of games all fans maxed out and x850xt fan 100% and max load temp on the on the graphics card never went over 52C and cpu temp was 130F.
 
This is my next case. The reviews are awesome for functionality and coolness. The only drawbacks are the inside is "plain". I'm not a big inside-case-tinkerer so I care not. I've currently got the JetMaster Jr. so I know AeroCool puts out a good product. Thanks for the post/thread!

:D

Hey func... How is the noise level on the 25cm side fan? Does it make any audible noise or is the thing stealthy?
 
Hello dudes, yes the fans are nearly silent, the 250 on the side I run it at half speed on the control knob for the single fact that on full speed it really interferes with the front to back airflow. The only thing that I can hear is when i am playing games the Cpu fan ( thermaltake 80 mm smart fan with temp sensor) it spins up according to the temp it is reading. Even then it only spins around 3200-3500 @ 130F and that is the only noise I can hear. Which works out well cause when I want to play games and wifey is watching tv I can just put my headphones on and not disturb her 5 feet away.
 
I am taking this right off the box it came in 1 x 14cm front intake
speed 650-1500 rpm max airflow 68.37 CFM noise level is 17.8-34.72 db.
1x 25cm 550-1000 rpm airflow 90.97-162.82 CFM noise level 19.54-35.28 db.And I have the Aerocool Xtreme Turbine in the rear for exhaust it is rated for max speed 1800 rpm @89.39 CFM 32.46 db. Even with them all maxed out the system is below 35 db so noise is not a problem with this case.
 
I'm thinking of picking one of these up tomorrow. One question though. Does it come with a 5.25 to 3.5 bay adaptor and faceplate cover? I could not find any info at the site or in the reviews.

Thanks!
 
All that came with it in my box was case and bag of hardware such as screws etc, was no instructions or anything which I didn't need anyhow but would have been nice to have
