That totally sucks. I had some "unidentified material" lodged inbetween some of my pins that I had to remove with a needle (or something I don't exactly remember). It probably wouldn't have affected anything, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

Only one way to go:

There are only two cases that I know of with vertical mounting and positive airflow that I'd be willing to use -- If there are more made by other manufacturers besides Silverstone, then I might consider them. However, I'd like to make the move to a nice rackmount setup (possibly water-cooled) in the future.
