So I'm wanting to see if anyone has a case that they are no longer using that's bigger than mine... I think I need some better airflow over my components, and mine is a mid tower case... link below. I'd like to get something a little bigger, as all my stuff is CRAMMED in there! My liquid cooler doesn't have much room at all, and I've got as many fans in it that I have... and it's a tight space!! I don't have any money, so this would be a donation for now and once I get back to working, I will either send you the money, or make a donation to the clan in your name! Thanks so much for being an awesome community of friends and helping me out so much with my computer issues!! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002Q2M8KK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 hxtr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shockingly, I'm running about 5 degrees cooler with the sides on... better airflow, but I'm still running a little warmer than I'd like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the second pic of the radiator for the liquid cooling is sitting against some things back there on the MoBo...
