I just recently Picked up a Gigabyte 3D Aurora 570, Case is Great, I do have a question though, My Signature says what my specs are, and the Top of the case is Getting REALLY hot. The PSU I have just has a fan on the bottom but not one on the backside, and the 2 120mm fans on the back don't move more then 1200RPMS is my case getting hot because the Exuast fans aren't pushing the air out quick enough, my CPU temp is 70c running 2 instances of WoW. I would like to know any suggestions that you all have. Thanks
 
I flipped my power supply over so the fan sucks the air from the very top of the case. This seemed to help keep the top from developing a "hot air pocket". It was free to try and it worked for me. It might help you also.
 
If you have not already done it, dump that "toolbox" in the bottom of the front bay rack, its blocking 1/2 of the fresh air intake.
