I think the weird topic title got your attention. Now that I have it, let me make things a little more clearer.
I live in Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh. I currently have a Q6600 with a 9800GT housed inside a CM 430. The Q6600 runs at stock and is cooled by a Hyper TX3. The CM430 has a 12 cm fan on the front as intake and a 12 cm fan at the back as exhaust. The temperatures here are getting really high and I feel I need to prepare in someway.
I have 6.5k set aside for this purpose. Now with this I can either go for a CM 690II which I feel is the best(est) cabinet for it's price range. It's huge and has ample cooling options and I can use this with my future builds as well. I mean the FEATURES available on it for 4.8K are just insane.
OR
I can go for a room cooler/desert cooler. A desert cooler/evaporative cooler would be pretty good for the dry conditions in Hyderabad. But I'm not entirely sure how much this would help my PC because that alone is my top priority. My room is about 12 x 12 feet square. Any recommendations for this would be quite welcome
So what do you guys think the best choice right now would be? I need what's best for the PC. Also note that I will eventually buy both . If the cooler provides adequate cooling, I'll delay getting the cabinet by about 2 months or so.
Thank you,
Rogues.
