Raidmax Smilodon Chassis vs Coolermaster CM690 + Window

ok, dunno what gfx card you're running if those things are in the way - did you know they go in AND out ?
who cares about that panel anyway - many people remove it so their Hardware is more visible.

about the cables - try harder then. cable ties are your friend. hide 'em in the empty Drive bays - some fit behind the mobo tray even. do you have a modular PSU?

edit: see you got the CM anyway :D

donate the Dirktooth chassis to a poor buddy :cool:


Unfortunately I had to give the Raidmax case back to the pc shop as I swapped it out for the CM case.

As to your other questions, I have the Force3D HD 4870. On that arm there's those 3 green things that can slide in and out I know. But even when they were all the way in, they were interfering with the heat pipe from my gfx card.
 
a 4870 you say? I'm running a 4870X2 and it fit's perfectly... must be a weird "sticking out" type of heat pipe then....

Glad you got it swapped though, as I was responsible that you got such a "fail chassis" and I felt so bad after you said it's not what you wanted...

Although in my defense, one shouldn't start asking about "where's my blow hole" AFTER you buy the case LOL
 
Yeah it has a weird "sticking out" type of heat pipe.

Don't feel bad :P People have different tastes, I just didn't like the same thing you did.

Least I have 2 blow holes now :D LOL
 
Does anyone know what the details are of the fans that come with the CM 690 is? I.e., CFM, DbA etc?

Need to know so I can build a slightly positive pressure case.
