Improve PC Temps By 15 C With A CASE Upgrade !?
20Got an ITX PC case that doesn't breathe well and makes your CPU and GPU temps too high? Want to improve those temps by as much as 15 C? The Fractal Design Torrent Nano might be what you're looking for! Let's check out how we're using it at my wife's setup! NOTE: I accidentally call the Neo G Mini V2 the "Neo Mini V2": there is a difference between the two cases, and the Neo Mini NON-G is probably the model I would recommend instead to avoid the problems I had with the Neo G Mini V2!
Names are hard.
Also of note: our Neo G Mini V2 for some reason came with the Neo Mini's front panel? Not sure what that was about.
