that's for the hot-swappable drive cage that is accessible from the front. pretty neat. Also, I gave my gpus +155 and a new 3dmark 11 score arrives: http://3dmark.com/3dm11/3599081 16426. not bad.

Another addition, I know I said I was gonna stop, but I tossed in one of those silverstone 140mm magnetic dust shields to the top of my case in the spot that was left open towards the front drive bays. I have some cables in the way sorta so I had to move it to the side. Success!!

well, I changed the rear fan to intake on this thing, and it managed to drop my cpu temps about 2-3c at load. all hot air exhausts through the top now. Works pretty darn well!
