Front Black Ice Micro + PC65

Not sure if this is more appropriate for this forum or somewhere else, but this seemed to provide the closest match.

Anyways, I made a post on another message board that I enjoy reading asking for advice about a front mounted radiator and a drive cage dilema, I'd love for the people here to take a peak and gimme some feedback on here if you have a comment or a good idea :)

Thanks!

apparently, using a fan casing as a shroud is bad. i'm not 100% sure why, but i suggested it in the past and was subsequently shot down, the reason being that the shape of the fan housing will ruin the airflow between the rad and the fan. i've yet to see conclusive evidence.

i think your setup is fine, just run with it and see how things go. i really don't see any major problems with it, so as far as i'm concerned it gets the thumbs up :)
