FS: Antec Aria MicroATX Cube Case Like New

pofe333 · 11-August-05, 03:59 PM

Hello all, I am selling my Antec Aria case that has been sitting in my room unused for a few months now. I originally hooked everything up in April and used it for about 3 weeks. I bought a new motherboard specifically for this case and my CPU temps were running high so I thought it was the case. I went out and bought a case about 3 times as big, added fans, and upgraded the heatsink/fan on the CPU; and got the same exact temps- 63-65 degrees. So it seems the problems lie within my mobo and the temp readings.

Anyway, there is nothing wrong with this case at all. I just have the bigger case and I am also putting together a HTPC with a different one, so I have no need for this. I have the original box and packaging materials, manual, everything that came with the case (power supply, fan, round IDE cables, etc...) Retail at CompUSA where I bought it was $130. Selling for $80 shipped as that seems to be the average rate for them on Ebay. If I do not get any interest here I will just post it on Ebay later. I will also post some pics later on when I have time.

As for your temps... My guess would be that you put too think a layer of TIM inbetween your cpu and heatsink.
Clean it out, and apply less. Should work wonders for you.
