Hi all,
I have just bought an Antec P182 and Thermalright 120 extreme to go with my system. I am replacing a Lian li pc70 and swiftech water cooling which are starting to cause more issues in terms of mobility than anything.
I have read some posts on here and other forums, as well as the review on SPCR on the 182se.
So what is the best setup in terms of fan location/blocking etc.
My system is a AMD 5200+, DFI NF590, X1950XTX, 2 x 400 GB hard drives and two optical drives.
Cheers, Its all getting a bit confusing so any help on how to set this up would be greatly appreciated.

cheers,
Was actually chasing setup reccomendations eg fan placement etc.
seems everyone has it different with this case - in terms of blocking slots, removing fans etc.
I have the scythe slfex 1200rpm fans to replace the existing ones and to get rid of the controller units.
Just not sure where to put them

In my P182 I removed all three TriCool's, covered top hole with Nexus DampTek, exhaust is an Scythe S-Flex 800 and middle intake is an Scythe Kama PWM at ~600 RPM's.
Works for me.
Next is an AC Accelero S1 on 7900GS and some rubber mounts for exhaust fan, then I'm done with silent computing.
Below some pictures with my setup and temperatures at ~30°C room temperature.
