Instructions state that CPU fan exhaust port on side of case should telescope. Am I missing a part or are instructions wrong as mine does not.

no i think the instuructions are wrong, i have two of these and none have the telescope, it has just the CPU exhaust.

I didn't play with that feature when setting up for work, but I don't believe it telescopes. If it does, the piece that would would need to be on the inside of the port since the outside is a solid piece of plastic.

Mine does not telescope either. However, I typically just throw those away. In my case the tower cooler doesn't fit but I was able to force the side panel on anyways.

Joe, I have used 4 of these cases and none have had the telescope feature the instructions indicate. Rosewill is good at miss representation but their products are normally a good buy. They did have that feature in other cases that I have used but I never considered it to be a deal breaker.

From the box shot and price I would guess NoI would say you need to add a heatsink and fan

The type of CPU heat sink/fan used in this case should have the fan blow into the heat sink and not away from it. The nice thing about this case is that is is very well ventilated and heat can not build up inside of it. Try not to install the hard drive over the CPU fan if you can.

You can use it either way. For me personally I have the front case fan blowing air in. The rear case fan blowing out. Two top fans blowing out and two side fans blowing in. My CPU Temp is at 25 Celsius at no load.

I installed an intake fan since my power supply has a 120mm fan that is providing the exhaust functionality. That setup seems to keep everything pretty cool (<40 C).

It did not come with a fan directly over the CPU on the side. The back fan does a good job. My case has a 580gtx in it and the original case fans do a fine job.

Not really. You have a problem with the motherboard. Some motherboards tent to accelerate the fan cooler processor when nothing boots up.

I installed 4 120mm fans, one on the bottom just in front of the power supply, one in front behind the front cover of the case (that just pulls off) one in back of the case and one on top of the case. If you have a mid to full size mobo, the top fan will have to be moved over a bit and then secured with just 2 case fan screws as it will not line up properly, mid to full size mobos tend to block the fan from being installed on the pre fit holes.

I have one installed on my sons pc. He has the enforcer case. Cooler master uses an odd "bolt pattern" if you will with their 200mm fans and I'd say with my experience if its cooler master and has the bolt pattern it will fit. That being said look at the pictures of the fan and then pull the front bezel off your case and look at how it mounts. It should measure 8 5/8" center to center for the mounting points. Sorry I don't have a mm tape measure. There are other mounting point also. 8 3/8" between those. Measure your screw holes on the case and if it's one of those. It should fit. Good luck these are great fans and push tons of air. I have one installed on my sons pc. He has the enforcer case.

Greetings,Both Saeed's and P. Rachels' answers are spot-on. An optional CPU cooling fan is included for applications that require additional cooling.Best regards,MITXPC

Make sure that there is a good airflow. I installed an extra fan in the side of my PC and so far its good. Cases with PSU on the bottom seem to have more issues with overheating if psu is blowing inside

No, you dont. At least not in my setup, dunnow how is yours. Check where your fan is, and how it is installed. This fan has 4 screws just like the original

The case comes with fans, but they are not the best in quality so I changed them up with aftermarket ones. I have a "CASE FAN NOCTUA | NF-F12 PWM RT 120mm fan" in the rear as intake, and I have a "COOLMASTER MEGAFLOW 200MM BLUE FAN" in the front as intake. This diagram shows exactly how I set up the positive pressure within my case as I replicated exactly from this source. Check it out http://cdn.overclock.net/6/6f/6ffa3f0a_rtqJu9P.jpeg

I modded the top of the case just above the CPU and installed an h100i. I cut out two holes for the fans to exhaust and screwed two 120mm fan filters on the top of the case so that it looks clean. My temps dropped hugely with the extra exhaust and the h100i fits perfectly. I wish they had an option for a top exhaust in the first place but my mod turned out great. I wouldn't recommend if you place a receiver or something on top of the case. My rack has shelves so it works perfect.

I'm using a "Cooler Master MegaFlow 200 - Sleeve Bearing 200mm Blue LED Silent Fan for Computer Cases" without any modifications to the case itself. Fits like a glove with the screw slots on the case. Hope this helps. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103073

Hello there..It is always preferable to put rear fans blowing out. But be sure you are creating a single air flow direction. You may not need intake fans and create enough negative air pressure within the case that air will enter through any other openings, but it's also preferable to put filtered intake fans with more capacity than the outlet fans so you always keep the dust where it should be and a fresh computer case.
