Yeah, I don't know if it'll lower the CPU temp. Maybe by a few degrees, but I wouldn't buy the case for that purpose.
Nah, it'd be a waste of money, purely for that reasons Wouldn't it? lol

I don't know about the 8800GTS, but the 2900XT fits in the 900 perfectly 2" to spare.How long is the 8800GTS? baring in mind it doesn't have a power connector on the top, it's on the end and because of that you may take out a couple of drive slots.
Not too good actually, I believe I may have put on a bit too much thermal paste. My CPU is idling around 45C @ 3.6GHz 1.4v. When I get around to it I may buy a new cooler and use a bit less thermal paste.What temps are you getting on the Q6600 Geoff?
Most likely, which is why I may end up buying a Freezer 7 Pro again.Ah right, Just curious, wouldn't a front facing cooler be better, one that'll blow it out the back?
If you have your computer in a dusty environment, you should have either bought a dust shield for the fans, purchased a case that didn't have a giant fan on the top, or do what most of us here do and clean it out once and a while.Need I say more?
I don't bother too much with routing cables, as I'm in it moving things around about once a week. Never again will I buy this case.
How did you drop a screw in the PSU? You should never be installing/moving things around with the case standing upright. If you had it lying on the side like you should have been, it wouldn't have been an issue. There are also hundreds of cases where the PSU is mounted on the bottom, it's very common.For anyone serious about computers, that monkeys around all the time, the case is a piece of crap. TWO HOURS removing a screw that fell into that PSU. I had to disassemble the damn thing to get the screw out. I was sooo mad.
Are you serious? I don't see how you could ever actually recommend using a server case for a home desktop. From the looks of it that would not house a crossfire/SLI setup, nor could it cool it properly.You want a case? Like, seriously want a case? These are cases. Pardon the dust, it can get really dusty in here.
It may work alright, although that case looks extremely cheap, especially the outside.Alternatively, this is a fabulous case. I have one in inventory that I used before this 900 piece of crap. Maybe that's why I'm so biased:
As a matter of fact, if you're serious about computers looks mean very little. Functionality is key... and in that respect the 900 fails the test miserably.

Did you mean to say, "As a matter of opinion?"
I'm serious about computers, and I think looks are important. The 900 is an awesome looking case. That's why I can overlook the fact that it has thumbscrews, a shitty 3.5" drive adapter, and limited room inside. The case is not hard to work with, IMO, and for the price, it's one of the best mid-towers on the market.
I'm serious about computers, but I generally install my parts and leave them alone.
