Very true. Well I dont participate in any LAN parties. Not with a wife and a kid. I just mainly play BF2 and am an admin for our servers. So external case setup is looking more attractive. With a 2nd 7800 gtx on its way, and with all the loops and all, it might just be easier to put everything in my kingwin case and just have the cpu and gpu blocks in the coolermaster stacker instead of craming it all in one case. I could put those colder connectors where the 2nd power supply goes to the stacker in the rear. I can still go with the 120.3 external in the kingwin. As of right now I only have the 3 bottom bays open in the stacker. Dont colder connects restrict your flow a bit, or is it unnoticeable in temps?
