Bah, dont buy a new case, we just need to get more air flow into it.

Those dumb ass 8800's runs so stupidly idiotically hot is where all your extra heat is coming from. I see now my side fan idea is out, if it were me, i would use the same idea but do it blow hole style right on the top of that case, nice 120 mm with a good looking grill and lights and would make the case still look cool, but give you the needed additional air flow. :twocents:

Yeah, with the tips I posted on cooling that 8800, and Zeus' ideas, you should be running much cooler :wtg:

I will grab a few more 120MM case fans and give it a shot. Thanks guys. I will let you know how it turns out.

2 120MM case fans and a Zalman 9500 (amazing $25 Ebay deal) CPU cooler and my CPU now runs at 36 degrees instead of 62. Thanks for the input guys.
