hi,
i have cooler master elite 310 cabin but its not sufficient to give better cooling my GPU and CPU touches the 80*C easily when in load, if i open the door the temperature reduces to 50 to 60*C.
and my CPU Have Stock cooler.
i thinking of two choices
1. CPU Cooler
2. Cabin

i don't know which one i choose, my choice is CPU cooler then this cabin is ok?
or just i need to change the cabin or both cabin and cpu cooler.

My System Configuration:
M/B : intel DH67BL
Processor: intel i5 2500
RAM : Corsair 4GB 1600MHZ x 2
SMPS : Corsair GS 600
Cabin : Cooler Master Elite 310
GPU : Asus GTX 560ti
Cooling System: 120mm fan in FRONT, BACK, SIDE.

And Suggest the CPU Cooler for my configuration. and for cabin i prefer Cooler Master Centurion 6 what you think about that cabin and price?

What is your budget for Cabinet + CPU Cooler?

 

[anandharaja]

^^
2000 to 2500 for CPU Cooler. for cabinet i prefer Cooler Master Centurion 6 but i think its not available now.
if i purchase only CPU cooler this cabin is ok?

How are the fans oriented ?
front intake, side intake, rear exhaust ?

In any case, just cpu cooler will do. Your cabinet is ok.

I don't understand.
I think you are saying that your budget is 2.5K for cabinet + CPU cooler?
Ir it is 2.5K for each item?

for CPU cooler only 2.5k is high?

For cabinet i decided to buy later after checked with CPU Cooler.

hi Myth
after changed side exhaust as intake now heat some what reduced, can i use fan in CPU air intake hole, if yes exhaust or intake?

 

[d6bmg]

No, 2.5K for CPU cooler is enough to buy a mid-end cooler.

Go with:
CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO @2.1K

Lower side fan for intake and upper duct will work as exhaust in series with cpu fan.

Cm Hyper 212 Evo will fit into yur cabby but you won't be able to use the air duct with the cpu cooler ie Hyper 212 Evo installed.

YES can i use one exhaust fan there?

oh thanks its possible to use extra fan in mycabin? as air intake?

 

[Myth]

@OP: What is exactly behind the air duct in the side panel ? Is it just a slot for fan or is there a tubular structure all the way to the stock cpu cooler ?

Topgear is right. The upper slot in the side panel cant be used if you install the Evo. The lower fan slot might just fit.

 

[topgear]

YES can i use one exhaust fan there?

apart from the front inatke and side panel ( lower side ) there's no more inatke fans you can fit unless you mod the cabinet somehow.
