ANTEC OVERTURE: SWEET CASE, SWEET PSU, SWEET COOLING???
 

Alright, I have been debating majorly if i should go with the antec overture case or the kingwin. I want the Overture because it looks sleek and shiny, and i figured with some modding i could insert my own aryllic window on the top of it which would look quite stellar, If anyone has already done this mod please send me a private message about it, because i would love to hear about it. The Case is everything i want in a case because i dont need that much room, BUT i am under the impression that the Airflow SUCKS and CPU temperatures are idling around 50 degress Celsius and 60 under full load which is unacceptable in my standards. Post back if you have this case. Or have any comments about the cooling required in it..

~Peace ><> :biggrin:

looks nice

hows cooling?

i dunno, im asking you, or anyone who cares, i heard it needs some help, but then other people tell me there just fine with its cooling. so i dunno what to believe. maybe some guys from TWL wanna post anything about this if they got info..........


~ Napster <>< (by the way i just sent u a PM prometheus) 8)

the overture looks like bad cooling but i cant see all the way around

antec overture contin..
 

this picture might help

Definatly looks like bad cooling. Notice how there is no outlet by the graphics card. That would be a killer water cooling case though, but it would take a lot of modifing.

ok .. and why do you want a desktop case? (pizza box)

I wanna try something new, But Gnogtr is right this would be a killer watercooling system. And that would be my first resort is too water cool it with a GlobalWin Silent Stream Water Cooler http://store.coolerguys.com/840556000389.html BUT there is one major problem and that is the GlobalWIn cooler requires an 80mm fan outlet and the overture only has a 92mm one. So do u think i could find a 92 to 80mm transfer, i know there are 80 to 92's but ive never seen a 92 to 80mm
Any suggestions? Do u think i could just try to screw the 80mm fan through the 92mm outlet? :wavey:

I'd just screw the fan in by attaching it to the grill. I've done that sort of thing before on my sister's computer. It looks like a very simple cooling system, but I can make you a deal on my old Thermaltake watercooler I have, I'd sell it to your for $30. I put over $100 into it, but since I got my kickass Swiftech system, I have no use for it now.

YES
 

woa, 30 bucks for the thermaltake liquid aquarius 2 or 3? and dont they only work in thermaltake cases? does it only cool the cpu?

SWEET
:wavey: yea ill defintiely do it for 30
