Such a brilliant case. Has helped drop temps 5 degrees idle (39-40 degrees) and 10-15 degrees under load depending on application.

Great setup, and new case, I thinking about change on this case too from my Antec 1200, but in some reviews they talking about not best from intake airflow, Are you cut front mesh around fan ?

btw. I see Vileda cloth on the top of case using same cloth too ;) they are great to remove dust.

It certainly is good at removing dust :p I use it to keep my k750 keyboard dust free and gloss fronted monitor!

I have cut the mesh grille yes, to test to see how much extra airflow comes in.

Airflow is good either way though.

do you notice much different temps with this cuteted front mesh, is worth ?

I think I will buy this case and also I will change fans for Coolermasters, but temps I think will be higher on my parts in this case a little bit than in my current Antec 1200.

First of all, that guy with the Corsair case, awesome rig and awesome office! Very impressive, and for everyone else, great setups and really good ideas for design!

Here is mine as of a couple of months ago, I've moved recently but it is very similar. I built this rig for a couple reasons, to "hopefully" play BF3 on high settings, and give my brother my old rig to also play BF3 (likely medium settings on his :D) - My specs are in my not so awesome signature, and I'm soon to add 4 more gigs of the same XMS3 sticks for more BF3 friendliness. I'm also ready to slap another 6950 on dual x16 slots for BF3 if its required but no legit required specs yet so we'll find out soon!

My setup(s) (with my wonderful cheap desk that has a bow in it). I want an L-Desk for all my equipment, but waiting until my wife and I move to a bigger house. Custom rig with 25" HP LED Monitor and a 13" Macbook Pro (Mid-2010).

HP Envy 14 (Mid-2010)

your mouse looks like a bong :p

btw we have the same desk, but mine has the corner piece, and other section to form a l shape desk.

nice desk, i got the entire thing for $50 from some guy who was desperate to move to a new house :p

lol :D I have the whole set, but I don't really have room in this house to make it an L so the desks are scattered around (my brother also has a set, and I have one of his tables in my room lol). For $50 you got a deal :D

To the dude slightly above this post: nice upgrade :D Those antec cases are boring lol.

Also: An Envy!! OOOH! I wanted one of those and ended up with a Vaio instead. Wish I had bought the Envy lol. HP screwed up on my order bigtime and ended up giving me a big credit, but I couldn't wait any longer after that >>

As with many setups, it's a shame about the cables. I wish "they'd" invent a good way of hiding them or at least come up with decent cable management in all desks sold.

    • Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The mind behind widely well-received games like Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian, Fumito Ueda, showed up at Summer Game Fest today, and that was to reveal his latest project. Being developed by genDESIGN, Gen Atlas is incoming with what looks to be plenty of mech and robot action. Watch the reveal trailer, which makes not much sense, above. The game will have players waking up on an abandoned planet where deserted facilities and grand designs from the original creators remain. Soon, they will stumble upon a colossal robot, from which players gain access to the power to change the world. "Across an endless expanse of time, the remnants of those forgotten constructs begin to move once more," adds the studio. The gameplay snippets seen in the trailer show the player character climbing giant robots (as expected from the creator), while also controlling these titans somehow as well. This is a fully single-player open-world adventure. “The team and I are grateful to all the fans who’ve been eager to learn more about our game,” says Fumito Ueda, CEO and creative director of genDESIGN. “Their passion and enthusiasm has always motivated and inspired us. We hope to share an experience that inspires moments of quiet wonder and discovery.” Before gaining the name Gen Atlas, Ueda first announced this project back in 2024 with the codename Project Robot. Interestingly, this will be a project being funded and published by Epic Games, which should mean that a Steam release is out of the question. Gen Atlas will be releasing on Epic Games Store, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced just yet.
    • How backwards can you have it? Yes, Linux was gaining because of Linux handhelds and the push for gaming compatibility, but that's not desktop users, it barely converts anyone who owns a SteamDeck, though it helps for those who wanted to do it, but anyways, the AI+RAM debacle helped Linux because people can't easily upgrade their PCs easily and many hate AI so they'd be incentivized to try Linux.
