Annoying Shuttle

[boardy]

Does anyone know if it's possible to fit an 80mm fan in the side of these things? I'm worried about the airflow in it and my CPU temps after running a day are nearing 53 degrees

If I can fit an 80mm fan in the side will this help reduce temps or will it just create dead spots in the case which is never a good thing?

Cheers

i got the same shuttle as you ~ sn45g

these cases are meant to run hot. don't think you can fit an 80mm fan. the graphics card and psu gets in the way.

maybe those pci exshaust fans help.

ah right, is 53 degrees ok then? I just worrying cos I'm so used to seeing -30 odd

i removed the shim, got better temps and it didn't crash and overheat nomore.

you can tell if it overheats because you can see red lights inside the case (through the side holes) when it crashes.

from the bios. i got 52c @ 1.85vcore with full fans.

2600+ xp btw
