Thermaltake Armor Case Mod - Suggestions for a small problem
Last response: in Components
I currently have the Thermaltake Armor case with the big arse fan on the side. I love everything about the case except one thing....
I'm currenlty running two 8800's in SLI. The way my motherboard sits, it puts the bottom video card about an inch from the very bottom of the case. Because it sits so low, I can't seem to get good air flow to it. It idles alot higher than I like. The side window helps keep the top one cooler...it's just the bottom one that needs some loving.
Any suggestions on what I can do to get some air to that thing?

Assman gave you good advice, that's probably what I'd do too.
I have a Thermaltake Armor, and putting the drive cage on the bottommost slot will probably help you. For more airflow, you could place all HDs on the rear top shelf instead of behind the 120mm intake.
It's kind of stupid that video cards have their processors pointing down instead of pointing up. Convection gets messed up because of that...
