Loving the Air 740

[Galadaeros]

I know that many are not into the Air cases due to their unique appearance, but I've gotta say I am loving my 740.

 

The thing was a dream to build in and my temps are awesome (20 at idle and max 82 under load).

 

Here are a few pics of my build.

The corsair logo in the last pic is a custom touch made by my daughter-in-law and, in my mind, completes the build nicely.

I'm glad I am not the only person who likes these cases. I may never go back to a standard tower ever again. Thanks for sharing the pictures.

It's good if you don't have mechanical hard drives. The 2nd chamber not being cooled is a serious design flaw in my opinion.

 

Hard drives in the 2nd chamber get really hot. I wish they would have added some kind of cooling solution because other than that, I really liked the case.

I actually mounted a 92mm case fan (in exhaust) at the rear of the 2nd chamber and it does a great job of keeping temps down.

 

I house 2 SSD's and 1 HDD in the 2nd chamber and the mechanical drive is consistently hottest but rarely above 35 degrees. Not ideal for some but a workable solution.
