Hello

I have a few quick questions for those of you who have had the opportunity to play around with the koolance cases. I'm getting ready to order one soon, and I was looking for some advice on what options to go with. I'll be running an AMD 1.33 on an IWILL KK266 board. I'm also running a GeForce 3 for my vid card. I haven't done much overclocking in the past but I'm looking forward to it with this case. here are the questions I have.

1. I read in the FAQ on Koolance's website that If you want to cool your GeForce 3 card, you'll have to use the MB cooler with an extended hose because the normal video card cooler won't fit. If this is the case does anyone know if you can also get another MB cooler to actually use on the mobo?

2. I also have read that the more coolers you are running (i.e. PS, Video card, Processor, HD, mobo) the less effecient it is at cooling. If this is the case, what options would you recommend going with? I thought maybe just the processor and video card?? What do you all think would be best for an overclocked system? Is the HD cooler really just overkill, or will it really be more beneficial than just focusing my cooling on the vid card and processor?


Thats about all I can think of at the moment, and I appreciate any help I can get.

thanks again!!

I have some "inside information." ;) If you have not already placed your order, I would wait for the newly designed Performance model in a few months. Koolance R&D in Korea are designing it with a totally different radiator with an estimated increased cooling capacity of 300% over the current model.

NICE!! Thanks Technonut!! I had heard about the performance case soming soon, but I didn't realize that there would be anywhere NEAR that magin of difference. Is there anywhere that you know of where I can read up on this? website seemed to just give VERY vague details. Any estimated release date? Thanks again
