Temps measured with all 4 case fans at half speed, cpu fan at full speed. LOAD temps measured after 1 hour infinite loop of 3DMark 2k1SE. IDLE temps measured 5 minutes after stoping infinite loop.

Proof you don't need to have a hundred fans and extra holes in your case. Its no "Quiet PC" but it isn't that loud either when using the case fans in moderation.

EDIT: My AS5 was freshly installed when I posted this. Now that it has gotten pretty burned in my idle temps went down 2C and my load temp went down 4C. :D
