Thank you! I like them, but they are a bit to hot when I'm playing BF3 (GFX1: 88°C , GFX2: 86°C)

(sorry for my bad english!)

try getting MSI's After Burner its an app that allows you to oc but (what i use it for) is fan control you can set a custom fan speed for it to be slow and quiet when say surfing web and speed up if needed in gaming.

I love the looks of that case, I have one still in a box - will be transplanting my current rig in the new year.

it's a very nice case, but a bit on the small side and the airflow is not so good.. and I've tryed to watercool it, but there wasn't room enough

To be honest, anywhere up to 95°C is fine and within in the safe limit (as a MAX temp)...increasing the fan speed never causes harm, but 88°C is fine anyway
