its been there since i got the case, and im not sure it serves a purpose, im looking at removing it and fitting a 80mm fan in its place to cool the cpu better, any idea if thats be a safe idea?.

Looks like they Using it for an air scoop or air ram. It nothing if you want to remove it and put a nice fan there.

Probably is placed to catch the air exhausted from a stock CPU cooler and direct it out of the case

Ah, well tradesman, would you say its ok to remove it and put a lower ish power fan there for now?, my cpu hits temps of 60c on gw2, and my case is pathetic for gaming, need a gaming case :/

Tradesman1 · Jul 20, 2013

Yes, should prob fit an 80mm or so, maybe even a 120 from the way the grid pattern looks

Dreadbeard · Jul 20, 2013

Unfortunitly i have no spare 120mm's at the moment. But i think im going to open a thread in systems in a moment about some upgrades that i feel need doing, would you mind dropping in there when its up? as itl include something about my cpu.
