    Does it even matter? I have no idea if the material contributes to heat.

    For those who are lazy

    Aluminum
    Plastic
    Steel
    Chrome
    (Clear) Acrylic

    never use acryllic it gets hot.
    Steel is the best because it doesnt bend as much and dent. However alluminum does the job fine.

    Yeah, I just want performance (cooling-wise). Steel seems like it'll get hotter, but I don't know. I already know to get a side air duct for the nastiness that is currently burdening my PC with 58°C.

    EDIT: By the way, SECC = Steel - Electrogalvanized, ColdRolled, Coil

    Alluminium is the best, but it's expensive :)
    but again, to me 4kg for a middtower is great!

    Holymotherofgawd that's expensive. I was thinking around $100 w/ good air circulation. Any news on the material? :huh:
