OK, so I would like to plan which parts go in each slot for optimum cooling and flow. I will be running a AMD ATHLON XP 2600 /333, 7200rpm HDD, DVD ROM, 3.5", 2 case fans (1intake/1 exhaust), 350w psu
top 5.25" DVD ROM
middle 3 5.25" left open
bottom 5.25" HDD
top 3.5" 3.5"Floppy
bottom 3.5" empty
top front fan Zalman ZM-F1 80mm, intake
bottom open
top rear Zalman ZM-F1 80mm, exhaust
bottom open
CPU heatsink w/80mm fan (see details below)
does this look ok, how hot (or cool ) should I expect it to run? how loud?
