I put the sides back on my case, but it was running hotter than I like, so I took the sides off and put a small floor fan next to it ...dropped 9C....days of loud whiny fans are done for me

I never thought I would take the plunge but I went to Water Cooling and dont think I'll ever look back

I'm watercooling my 3 year old system but the new system will be aircooled again. The aircooled HSF have been enhanced in the last few years, especially now that there're some that sport a 120mm fan natively (Thermalright XP-120, Zalman 7700). They allow for quiet cooling even when you o/c. I hope the Thermalright XP-120 fits on the Asus A8N-SLI, which will be in my next system.
