OK, here is the dilema...I just upgraded to SCSI 10K drives and an XP 1600+. Case is a generic Full tower w/ bad airflow. A real POS. Have a global win CAK38 that i modded by changing the fan out to a quiter YS tech. Anyway, temp stays nice and cool, 35 idle and 41-42 under full load. However, when I put the side of the case back on, it get HOT and crashes. I know this is due to poor airflow in the Box + the really hot HDs b/c if I only run one HD, it doesn't do this. So, opinions wanted:
antec 1200 Full tower vs. Lian Li PC60 vs Lian Li PC70.
I have in my box msi kt266 pro RU, 2 IBM 45 GB ata drives in raid, 1 10k rpm scsi ibm, 1 10k rpm quantum (half height, big drive). All of the PCI slots are full. I will have a CD burner and a DVD rom (eventually)
Already have a enermax 435 watt nice PS.
Any particulare advantages of the aluminum cases over the antec other than aesthetics? I REALLLLLY want the PC70, but it is just so damn $$$$. Also, do you think the PC60 is too small for all the junk i have crammed in there?
