Top Cap · 19th May 2010, 6:05 am

Hi Rob, the case comes with side vents either side, good job too as it is made of steel and thankfully nearly all metalwork, including the fan vent, involves the aluminium top. I had to design the layout the old fashioned way whereas the youngsters at work have a 3D CAD system costing £1000's which they use but still get holes in the wrong place
