case:

do you have anything better for $125 ?

and most importantly, will that cpu cooler fit in that case?

Very good . Buying Wednesday or tomorrow.
I have a newbie question: do the case fans require molex ? if so why is there a SYS FAN on the motherboard? do I connect anything there?
thnx

in my cooler master cm690 case, the fans came the sys fan connections, but i also had the molex power adapters.

i prefer my p180 with a ac freezer 64pro

i have the scout and scythe =DD
It can get a bit cramped, but it all worked out well. The scythe mugen-2 is freaking huge and it still fit, BUT you cannot install another fan on the top side. But you can install another fan on the bottom side of the clear panel.
What i did was that i installed a 120mm on the bottom slot and i installed a 80mm on top of the 120mm and i just screwed in the screws through the clear things... i'm not sure how to explain it in words lol

And when and if you do get the scythe mugen-2 , you have to make sure you put the fan a certain way because this cooler does get in the way of the top exhaust fan if you don't place it properly.

I have a XFX 4870 and it fits well.
Cable management is iffy but i'm not too concerned about that because my temps are fine.

I bought my scythe-mugen 2 from newegg yeah. The actual CPU cooler itself comes with a 120mm fan. I was also happy it came with a free fan but unfortunately... its just a 40mm fan... it's pretty tiny lol and i don't have any use of it, but maybe you will.

Yeah the window closes. Both panels are removable with thumb screws. The clear part of the panel you can't remove, if you're askin that lol.

What do you mean by stress? I know the CM scout fits M-ATX and ATX mobos ... but i'm not sure what you mean by stress. I have a EVGA X58 SLI LE motherboard and it's fine.

thanx guys . I have one more newbie question: will my antec ea650 handle this cooler?

I probably sound like a retard by asking that , but I want to make sure .

Here's is a link to a very good web site about cpu heatsinks that you might find interesting:

http://www.frostytech.com/top5heatsinks.cfm

Those tall tower style cpu heatsinks can take up a lot of space. If you use memory modules that have their own tall heatspreaders, then the cpu heatsink and the heatspreaders will get in each other's way. If you do not use memory modules with tall heatspreaders, then you will be okay.

Here's a tip - Install the memory modules first, then install the cpu heatsink. A lot of times the tall tower style cpu heatsinks will be very close to the memory modules or will be a little bit over the memory modules but the heatsink and memory modules will not interfere with each other.

Both the Antec Nine Hundred and the Coolermaster Storm Scout are very good cases. Both have good ventialtion, air flow, and cooling. I would say it is a matter of personal preference. Buy the one you like.

Did you look at the FrostyTech web site? The site has technical reviews of cpu heatsinks that might help you make a decision.

Those Patriot memory modules have the tall heatspreaders that look like a comb. They will interfere with the large tower style cpu heatsinks. That's why I do not bother with the tall memory heatspreaders. You have two options. You could purchase memory modules with normal heatspreaders or you could purchase memory modules with no heatspreaders.

Personally I do not bother with those tall memory modules. My cpu heatsink fan is so close to the memory modules the fan pulls air right over them. That is sufficent memory cooling for me.
