Cooling ideas for Antec Minuet?

[Wintermute76]

I recently built a system in a Minuet from Antec, it's a microATX case and cooling leaves a bit to be desired. I already milled a hole in the side(top cover) for a fan to blow in directly on the HS and by disassembling the HS and lapping everything and using AS3, managed to bring my temps down from 55-60C idle to 30C idle, pushing about 40 at load.

Any ideas for what else to do? I was thinking another intake fan mounted in front of the expansion slots to pull in and circulate to the front by the HD and CDRW and back to the PSU and out. I can post pics if you guys need to see what's what in the case. Thanks in advance

Edit: Eventually I"m going to switch the coolermaster CP5? (CM5?) bimetal HS for a Thermalright SK-7 or SLK-700 or 800 or a 600 if I can find one.

40°C at load is awsome. I really don't think you need any additional cooling.

I'd love to see pics of your setup.

how do you like the minuet so far.

Thinking of using the minuet, 2.4 P4c, intel i865 uATXmb and the low profile radeon 9600 to build my next system.....

I agree with ralf, those are great temps. I wouldn't risk anything by making more changes.

I'd also love to see pics, as I'm interested in getting one of these too.
