the case reminds me a bit of a stormtrooper

I can't remember where I read it but when I was looking around for a case and researching this one..

Apparently, at a show somewhere (before release) Corsair was showing it & had actually nick-named it the "StormTrooper Case"

It has a 200mm intake fan.
The 2 HD bays can be removed, or repositioned.

With the stock fan, airflow get choked a bit in the default position.
I moved the top HD bay, to left (on the floor) of the bottom one.

It helped some, but in the end I removed to bottom HD cage all together leaving just the floor mounted one closest to the PSU.

then moved my SSDs up to a 5.25" bay (Had a double mount bracket for them.
Improved Airflow alot.

Just got this pic from the interenet cuz Im lazy, but you can see how its setup.

The downside is the HD cage doesnt get quite as much airflow.



Biggest reason Im thinking of replacing that intake fan. It just doesnt seem to move as much air as it should.

Sorry for my ignorance,but what are this?

Graphics Cards :)

I'd love a triple card setup!
Need one large PSU though! Seeings as the average high end card draws more than 300w, that's 900w for GPU's alone lol.

Yes, graphic cards. But I think that he was asking about that sleeving kit. (Or not? )

I wish GPUs had power connectors on the bottom as well as the top, as there's no "neat" way to run the cables.

EATX mobos might cause issues, but normal ATX mobos the card normally has a bit of overhang.

Triple SLI? O.o Will you ever use all of it?

Anyway Wishmaster, I think you will like your new setup for sure. :)

Well when I eventually get my "pc room" I want as many monitors as the walls can handle!! Sooo triple sli will be needed lol.

Think I'd have 3 32" monitors on the desk and a 60" for movies, and or for long bf3 sessions on the sofa lol
