Increased airflow

[eg0re80]

Changed out the tempered glass and made a custom front and top panel to increase air flow on my Thermaltake View 51 snow.

What's the benefit (noise, temperatures)?

 

Temperatures, before the front fans were only pulling air through the little side slits, I'm already showing a cooler temp on the GPU. The top was just done to match the front.

Went to Home Depot and bought the metal panel sheets they sell and a role of aluminum A/C duct tape. Just cut to fit, not that think of a material, and cut the tape in small strips to fold over the edge to give it a cleaner look. Spray painted it white to match and used a little glue to attach.

Yea a little pricey but I wanted the size and the hidden compartment for the power supply and wires in the back and not the basement.

i might have to do some case mods to my nzxt h510 case for better airflow. might try the same thing , (or just drill holes in the front)

but that looks really good.
