I had this in General Hardware, and simply missed the fact that there was a cases and cooling forum. It was suggested that it be placed here so I did and corrected the middle link

Not a heck of a lot of difference other that looks, especially with the third one that has the full mesh front. I am not sure how I would like that, and would like comments on this feature.

Thanks in advance
