I got the Lian Li PC6089 case after reading the review here, although now I don't know if it was such a good idea. I'm having a little trouble with air flow.
I'm not sure if the small front intakes are causing some problems, or my cables.
My cables are blocking most of the air, so I'm going to buy rounded cables. Is there anything else I can do to increase airflow in the front?

My cpu runs at 50C with the side on and 45C with the side off.

I'd guess that you have your heatsink clip flipped around, but that would depend on what HSF setup you're using. I don't think airflow is your biggest problem with those numbers. I have a p4 2.4 oc to 2.7 running at 100% for 4 days, and it has yet to break 43c.:2cents:

I'd be worried about those temps on that setup as I have an XP2200+ in a 8K5A3+ and with the current room temp at 23C my system is 25C and CPU (100% load) is 38C. Have ya got the front and side fans suckin' air in and the rear and top ones blowin' air out? :?:
