Ah, seven more days.....

I am thinking of removing the hdd cage for better air flow. Maybe even mount another 120 mm fan into the 5.25 slots.

Finished my build last week. This was my second build. The first was with a Thermaltake Armour 8003. The Lancool was way easier to work with.

Hmmm, should I pick this up or the CM Scout?
Or should I perhaps wait to see what the new CM 690 II Advanced has to offer?

well the sniper is a bit too big and heavy for me
and I don't really like the looks of it. I was already pushing it with the scout but just saw how good a deal it was.

So I guess it's between the lancool and CM offering?

I'm also about to replace my HAF932 with the lancool (around 2 hours). I really like CM cases, but this one just ATTRACTS me... anyways whatever your purchase is i hope your happy with it.

I just replaced 2 months ago my HAF932 with a lancool, and I'm not looking back for now :)

I am still running both so i get to see the good/bad of both at the same time of both cases and i can tell you the lancool is just a much nicer looking case all around

hey was very very deep into k62 also, just 1 last question before getting it instate of cm692, i plan to mod 3 90cmf 120mm fan in the front mesh, was wondering any one try something similar? need to know how much noise its making, or some tried with some 60cfm fan? cause the mesh look tight and blocking airflow (making noise also). need experience from owner ^.^

you will have no place for a DVD, I don't count that you will need to remove the 5.25 rack , go with a Twelve Hundred if you want 3 fan, they even have 3 controllers for the speed of the fan.

I was wondering... what would happen if I changed the first top fan [closest to the front] to an intake? I just feel weird with one intake and 3 exhaust :P
I was thinking that with that pushing air down while the front pushes air toward the back, together it would give the gfx card more air.

But I think somewhere my logic is flawed :(

Or should I move it to the middle and mount it on the 5.25 drivebays??
