Ok, I sort of see what you mean. While I like this case, the door opens
to the wrong side (forcing me to rewire my entire home office!!)

But I do have this case (for my second desktop), which is also nice (but
low end):

my problem with cases is that's a lot of case to pitch out. I do have
enough extra stuff to build a third system (almost).

the only thing old fashioned about it is the lack of a side fan and
lack of ugly.

Antec P182 was great back in the day but getting long in the tooth
not to mention an old fashioned design.

It only has the side panel vent that my p182 doesn't have, otherwise
they seem similar, though the p182 has sound proofing. I might add
another in take fan at the front.

1-2 C isn't really a lot to worry about but yes your case has
fairly poor ventilation. The Cooler Master HAF 912 that I just got
from the Egg for $60 shipped is an awesomely ventilated case that
is significantly better designed than my CM 690. I luv it!

What does it mean when I get about 1-2C less idle-core temps when
my case is open (both sides removed) vs when my case is closed?
Should it be the other way around? Does it imply the case is not
properly vented?
