Hey how did you place your fans. There is the hard drive cage in the bottom of the case but also in the middle there is an option to put either2 hd in the middle or you can use the fan clip to blow air acroos the chipset and video card. How many of you have a fan in front of and behind that cage? or did you just put one fan.

This is a picture of someone elses but it shows the cage im talking about

I just put it right between the filter and the case and put 2 HDD's in the the cage so i could not put the fan behind it.

I had a fan in front of the cage. Because one of my drives is IDE and has to share a cable with the optical drive, the bay was occupied so I couldn't attach a fan behind

I also put an Arctic Cooling 120mm fan in the top HDD cage/filter area. I don't have any HDD's mounted there so it blows thru the cage.

I left my fans all in their stock location. I figured I'd move them if I had cooling issues but even with my Q6600 overclocked my temps are all fine.

I've removed the upper hard drive cage all together since I don't need it. I was going to add a small wind tunnel from the front middle fan but don't need it.
