Just ordered an Antec SX830

My PIII generic case which I leave running 24/7 strted to smoke up the room. I discovered a burnt power supply. So I ordered an Antec 830...and will put my 1.1Ghz TBird/MSI/PAL6035/delta(7000,LOUD rpms) into the new case and put the PIII into the 282.

Quick question....is the cooling and noise of the 830 better than the 282?

yeah its a great case.. stock with a FOP32-1 36C idle, 43C load - thats with a 900@1050.

now your cooler might do better since its got that wicked loud fan on it.. I think the FOP32-1 is pretty loud.. so this case doesn't hold the sound in too well.. but it does have very good ventilation.. I am thinking about getting a more silent fan for mine..
