HAF 932 to Raven 2

[waweru28]

My current build consists of an Asus Rampage II Extreme + ATi stock HD5970 + Cooler master Haf 932 casing + a Core i7 920 O.C 3.8Ghz cooled by Noctua NH D14 cpu cooler.
I got a raven 2 n was thinking of shifting my current build into this casing.is it worth it in terms of cooling and components temperatures??:$

Probably would be a little better.

thanks......
but I was wondering if the raven has better airflow for my 5970 than what the haf 932 is currently offering

It will be better but you should be aware that the 5970 will not fit the RV-02 without a slight modification to the grille over the fan in the bottom. You can just remove the grille from the 180mm fan that's beneath the video card or measure it out and cut a notch in it with a Dremel, etc.

He probably has a new rv02 if he bought it new, in which case he'll be fine.

Did not know they are selling them now with the new fans. My FT-02 red edition has them. Honestly (aside from better clearance) I don't know if they are better than the previous fans or not.

The fortress 2 i bought earlier this month came with the new penetrator fans as well.

Just a heads up if you care a lot about cable management. The case is really long so you might not be able to hide much if your cables arent long.
