I have a cooler master elite rc 310
I really like this case but it doesn't provide adequate cooling for my parts anymore.
120mm front intake fan and 120mm rear exhaust fan (adding a 120mm to the side panel doesn't affect my temps).
I'm planing on replacing a core i3-530 with a i5 2500K and getting a second 6950.
Option 1. Mod the case.
120mm top exhaust fan.
2x 120 mm bottom intake fans.
This would be the hardest option, this being my first mod, but it would be the cheapest.
Option 2. Get a cooler master storm scout and slightly mod it.
I really like this case but I would have to remove the hard drive cage in order to fit my 6950.
I would also have to throw in one of these to fit hard drives.
Option 3. Get an antec nine hundred v3 and call it a day.
This would be the easiest but most expensive option.
The only problem I have with this case is that it's 13lbs heavier than my rc 310.
Let me know what you think.
I'm open to suggestions. I'm looking for good cooling and I want a side panel window.
Water cooling is not an option. I don't mind dabbling into modding if it's worth it.
Thanks a bunch.
