Hey,
Currently i have an Antec Sonata III stock, no mods or additional fans. my idle temps are 53C for my 5850 and 38C, 32C, 80C and 35C accoriding to speedfan on my 955. I believe the 80C is glitch right? right. When gaming the video card can get into the low/mid 80s which is kinda high i believe. The cpu gets into the mid 50s. There is no room to add another fan in my case unless i start cutting wholes which im not really into but is a possibility.
So with these temps im looking to get another fase with better airflow and possibly more fans. I was looking at the Antec 300 (i wanted the illusion but im in canada and would have to pay $100 from newegg for it, thats with shipping and taxes) and buying 1 or 2 extra fans to go with it.
Would anyone advise getting a different case? I am on a budget of about 70$ canadian total.(looking to sell the sonata and use that money and maybe a bit extra)
I've been looking at the antec 300, COOLER MASTER Elite 330 or even the rosewill challenger and destoryer. The case needs to fit a 5850, 955, corsair 750tx and a gigabyte 770ta ud3.
Thanks everyone and i'm looking forward to reading your input
