I'm in the Bay Area, but it's a good tip, if you have a local computer recycler, they often strip out the components and throw away cases, and are good places to stop by every once in awhile and look there there piles of stuff.

They we're going to throw them away. :) From: Matt Cross [mailto:mrforkl...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2010 9:55 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: mid-tower cases Antec 900 is my favorite case -- great airflow, quiet fans -- with all fans on low, have never had an i7 system overheat in it. Its little brother, the Antec 300, is pretty good, but does not come with the front fans -- still has good airflow. -- Matt Cross mailto:mrforkl...@gmail.com<mailto:mrforkl...@gmail.com> On Wed, May 19, 2010 at 12:16 PM, John Aldrich <jaldr...@blueridgecarpet.com<mailto:jaldr...@blueridgecarpet.com>> wrote: My current machine at home is running *very* hot. I have to have a powerful fan pointed almost directly at the CPU in order to keep it from overheating. That's with a couple 80mm fans in the back! I think it's time to get a new case that's built for temperature control. Any suggestions? I'm not overclocking my CPU or anything, it just runs hot! I'd prefer to keep a new case below about $50-75, max. If you have any particular cases in mind, can you post a link to where they can be found on-line? I prefer NewEgg, as they tend to honor their rebates. TigerDirect will use any excuse to keep from paying rebates! :( [cid:image001.jpg@01CAF73C.91FD8590][cid:image002....@01caf73c.91fd8590] ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
