I've always thought, that placing exhaust fans at the top of the case made more sene, it aiding natural convection and all.
As always, nice review!
great review, the honesty of side vents, SPCR knows ventilation.
top fans are excatly the opposite of convection, it is a convection killer. convection is a defiance of nature in a real case, this aids in longevity, weather changes happen, the case doesn't have to, in real convection, it utilizes heatsinks. the top fan makes it a wild undisciplined heathen...like gods nature. that is NOT good for micronics. Not to mention what falls down through them.
I am just getting to this article, I am looking for the simple genius of original aTX standard to return for an antec case...and cannot find one. I have the 2600amb builders case contently hacked. As realistic as I have ever acheived...and can't fond a newer version. Would love to see Eatx in a 2600 type case, simply so, I would even build ducts again.
