Antec II user manual VGA Card Cooling, Maintaining the Washable Air Filter

Page 6

VGA Card Cooling

There is an 80mm fan mount with vents on the clear side window right above the VGA card. The vents can supply fresh air to the card without a fan (passive cooling), or with a fan (active cooling) if you are using a high performance VGA card that needs extra cooling. Install the fan so that the air is blowing into the case. We recommend using an Antec 80mm TriCool fan.

Maintaining the Washable Air Filter

From time to time it will be necessary to wash the installed air filter. Not washing the air filter will result in higher system temperatures and possible stability problems. We recommend checking the air filter at least once a month initially. The frequency will change depending on system usage (users whose systems run 24/7 will likely have to check/wash more often than those who don't use their systems every day) and on environmental conditions.
