@Joe - FANs
"
Yes, but that is all due to high end graphics cards - 3 of them
"

Do you know what you want to say here? You are saying, that
the existing R600 cooling solution works not properly. Means,
when a user buys that card, the existing cooler is not able
to cool that devise.

You know that this is nonsense. The cards are designed in a
way, that they could ALONE cool the graphic, otherwise it
would not make sense. Its clear too, that the 4 big FANs in
the case bring the WHOLE case temperature down, which is
also good for the CPU. Keep in mind, that a case is normally
closed, so you have to bring ALL heat out of the case. How
do you do this? Right, with fans. The more you have, the more
down goes the environment temperature in the case. I don't
know, why thats so hard to understand.

But I will leave it here - its my last message to that topic.

Someone on the interim Ace's forum pointed out that this case is the one that AMD uses for all their high end demos. If that is the case, so to speak, then nothing can be read into the number of fans or even the size of the power supply. It could be that they are needed, or it could be that it is overkill for this application. There is no way to tell.
