I have already purchased the Corsair 550D case. If you do not know, it is a quiet case, with a lot of places covered where you could insert a fan (such as the Radiator and Side), and the case runs quieter than your average case but sacrifices some performance because of it.
I am going to be using an air cooler for my CPU (Intel Stock Cooler), and I am worried about the temperatures being affected negatively by using an open-air cooler on the components, as the temperatures are already pretty bad as it is from what I've read (36C idle, 81C load for closed shroud GPU). If I use an open-air cooler, such as the MSI Twin Frozr III/IV, would it hurt my temperatures on my CPU? Like, push it into the 70s range? Or will it do that regardless?
I wasn't sure if this fell under Graphics Cards or some kind of Cases section.
