Stefan is right - no need to ring the alarm concerning your temps. Surely there is always optimization possible. And you should think about your aiflow concept. Kama Bay would enable this direct airflow of fresh air through the Mugen tower cooler.

As for the GPU: Referring to my 8800 GTS (G80) idling at 62-67 degrees at the moment your GX2 idling at 70 degrees is not hot! I think this is perfectly save. Those GPUs can easily handle above 100 degrees (although the fan will have to speed up).

The image Stefan posted shows the principle for airflow:
cool fresh air in at bottom front > air is heating up due to hot components and raises to top of the case > hot air is blown out of the case by rear fan and power supply fan.

Bye Oli

Hi,

I think the problem is that I have a lot of holes for additional 2 fans on the left side of the housing but I can not put more fans there since this side is detachable. Maybe I should close it with some screen?
I would install KAba Bay in front though. My question still: have you got those Mugen fans in your place in Hamburg? WOUld love to buy 1.

Hello antonka,

usually, we deliver only corporate clients like e.g. pc-cooling.de - just have a look at their pages to purchase a fan.

Cheers,
Stefan
