Need help with Corsair 350d/300r compadabilty for the windowed panel

[Anthony Miller]

I own a 300r corsair (black) case. I want a windowed panel but I hate the 300r window panel (it has air vent holes). I want to know if the 350d windowed panel would fit on my 300r. Corsair.com is no help.

Otherwise I'm going to order the 300r windowed panel and take it to the glass shop for a duplicate without holes. Plexiglass would be the way to go?

The holes are there to allow warm/hot air to escape which would otherwise cause system shutdown and/or instability. Eliminate them and you might live to regret it. In fact, if you're a gamer I can guarantee you'll regret it.

If you scroll down a little to post #34 this guy did it and I've seen a few others that said the window air vents weren't needed to run at a high level. Not that I know, just looking for opinions. This is my build:
