HAF X Full Gaming case

[zybel]

Should i keep GPU shroud on my HAF X Full Gaming Case or not? ?????? GPU GTX 580 SLI master 38 c Slave 45 c ... i know the 1 inch gap will cause heating issues but will removing the case shroud help cooling the GPU's ????? CPU water cooled 2700k 4.6gz 30 c ..... 3 x case fans 2 x 200mm and 1 125 mega flow exhaust. i assume the case fans will run off the CPU temp not the GPU temp? really want to cool my GPU! any help??

Only way to know would be to remove it and see if it makes a difference.

Do you mean the side panel one or the one that can be attached to the lower HDD bays ? either way i would leave them on if you have either or both of them fitted as they channel the air more directly to where you want it.
