No. The only way to get these "fantasy perfect" cases out to consumers is by criticising the existing flawed designs. SPCR's credibility weakens when they praise the Antec SOLO without pointing out the obvious errors. Dude, I think the P180 and P150s are overrated myself, but you're making a big st...

Re: Case fans & processor silencing
- I also had a look at Nexus Damp Tek case insulation. The small amount of reviews I found online seem to suggest this stuff can make a lot of difference to noise inside the case. Since my processor is Socket A, choices for decent silent coolers seems to be limited. The CNPS7000B-ALCU Super Flower ...

Well, since we know for a fact that black computers are faster, we can infer that any Nexus fans that have black on them are faster and louder than the orange ones.

Really really minor update: added links to places where you can buy the incredibly rare blue led Yate Loon and the NMT thermal-based fan controller (as well as an Evercool analog), and links to the recent fan design article and fan roundups. Just FYI, for peope looking for the NMT and YL in America.

With a bigger case, you can put the hard drives, and possibly the optical drives, farther away from the CPU/heatsink and PSU, keeping them from getting heated up from those components. Also, it MAY help the PSU keep from ramping up if it's further away from the CPU than in a smaller case. But that's...

@MikeC: I suggest that SPCR should also test the fans (maybe just the best ones) when mounted on a HS or on a case - not everyone is going to cut the case grill(s). There are many many different grill designs out there, from extremely restrictive to mesh, so they'd have to test them all. Open air r...

Heat doesn't get dispended by the enclosure, only by the air that's blown out of the case. It doesn't matter what material it is made of! SORRY... Metal plays a major role dissipating heat....
