[QUOTE="Jmac, post: 5714358, member: 545486"] It's an E8400 ... You really don't need much airflow through the case to overclock well with it ... My X3110 (Xeon equivalent of E8400) operates under 40*C @ 3.87 GHz w/ a $12 Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro in a Gigabyte Poseidon case with 2 x 120 mm fans and a mesh side with an ATI Radeon HD 4870 in there. Besides that, the 900 is a pain in the *** as far as installation, cable routing, and maintenance go ... and I'm not impressed that a $100 case has so much plastic on it. The Coolermaster CM690 is a superior case for less money (usually $30 less). It still boggles my mind how the 900 developed such a great reputation while being so incredibly mediocre for the money.
