Computer Case

Does anyone know a good full size computer case that has good air cooling for 3 GPUs?
My current Zalman tower works fine for 2 GPUs and I think it might for a third, but I wanted to see if anyone has any experience.

Check Fractal Desing & Corsair cases for good airflow.

a modified mac pro case so far does wonders for me ;)

**noise is still a point for improvement though

corsair obsidian range is worth checking.. 900d fits pretty much everything and the sink in.

Could you maybe post a pic or explain your set up. I am stuck with a mac pro and am curious about expansion beyond 1 GPU

Thanks!

Hey Kavorka,
I have a Coolermaster HAF XB. Somewhat unconventional but really good airflow and very easy to access from all sides.

Check out the reviews.

Best,
Seeker

Hey guys, I have been looking into this more. My current case has a large side mounted fan that blows directly onto the GPUs. I don't see that very often in these high end cases. Is it not needed? What if I have 3 780s in there, would the Corsair 900d give enough cooling?

For Airflow, also look at the Carbide Air 540:

PSU on the other side of the case (making it broad, cubelike) and no Harddisk cages in front ... ideal for front to back flow of air.
