Case of a Question

Well I recently got a case from newegg(they rock . But any ways I have 2 intake fans at the front but there no ventilation holes or any thing that would seem to let air come through. The style of the front of the case is similiar to this one. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=11-156-021&depa=1. Please let me know if this is a big factor or if it doesnt matter at all. Cheers

i had a case that looked like that... i think it was a knock off because that thing was a POS. but it didn't have any place for fresh air to come through the front either. i ended up cutting a huge whole in the front for air... like 12 CM actually. i had to move the power switch and stuff too. i put it on the side of the case nearest me. unless you have some kind of gap between the plastic bezel and the "vents" that are in the metal i don't think it'll breathe too easy.

As long as you can draw air up from the front bottom of the case you should be OK. Not great but OK.

Does the front bezel have a hole on its underside for air to enter through? If it doesn't then I'm not sure how those intakes are getting air. No air taken in = get a new case.

I thing that a small hole close to bottom may appear there. Anyway front intake doesn't look good. Fan "grills" are way too restrictive. If you want to use intake fans on front - you need to mod that case. Side intakes look pretty nice tho...

Thanks guys. Yea there is a slot at the bottom of the case, never really bothered to look down there , But ya I cut out the the front fan grills to increase airflow. The case temp at all times is never over 37c. But I was just curious on how much the airflow was restricted. Cheers

Welcome to the forum!

I have a skyhawk case just like it (it is smal inside). I has to make a custom mod to the front as well.
