Does anyone here know if there is an updated CAG for x58 systems?
I'm want to know if a new case for X58 should be CAG 1.1 compliant or
not.


How do you tell if a case is CAG 1.1 or not? I don't see many cases
that state that they are and yet there are many cases that appear to
have excellent cooling that don't. Is there a particular case that
your looking at?


CAG 1.1 Specs are he

Looks like the design was for the Pentium 4

Here is a typical CAG 1.1 case:

I ran across this specification which was touted as a feature for one of the
cases I was looking at on Newegg (Can't remember which one). I always jot
down the new acronyms whenever they pop up and then do a search to find out
what they are in the hopeless effort to keep up to speed. Anyone looking at
the spec will recognize the design - It is quite common on many cases. But
many more cases do not have the CAG 1.1 design, and some of them are newer
models from major brands. Thus the question: is there an airflow design that
is recommended/needed for the X58 systems?
