Better case or better heatsinks

[Jononomous]

I'm debating between getting 2 GV1000's for my vid cards to draw the heat off, or getting a better case for airflow (antec 900 or cooler master HAF).... which would benefit my temperatures more? The cards are the only thing really running hot.

A picture of the inside of your pc would help.

The case is just a standard Inwin case

Here is a pic of the comp... hard to organize wires inside a small case

well i would say... get a bigger case. because your huge psu cables are blocking air flow

i must ask is there a front intake fan under that white shrowd, if not then that may explain the heat,(no air circulation around the cards)

*sadface* nope, no fan....

So antec 900 or Cooler Master HAF?

Thanks for all the advice guys

you know antec has the 1200 which is closer in price to the HAF it is also a full tower which would be closer in size to the HAF. So if you want to spend more money i would say go with the HAF or the antec 1200. If you want a smaller case and want to save a lil bit of money go with the 900.
