hi guys,

Got Abel H2 case and mounted in it recently my I5 NUC.
I'm little scared though about the temperatures.

Idle is ~40C
Watching movies ~55C with 10% cpu load.
Watching Netflix over silverlight pushes temps to ~75C with HDD temps reaching almost 60C

max when pushing temp with Prime95 was 85!

Is this normal ?

when watching netflix whole case is barley touchable, so hot it is :O

I used first time paste given with case but Nuc shutdown twice on me with temp around 50, so i repasted with best artic silver I could get and it started to work without hickups but the temps are scary.
I'm afraid it will start fire on my TV closet.

Anyone with abel H2 case wants to post experience ?

I have also got a H2 case. I only have the I3 NUC, though. I have mounted a 1 TB WD Red HDD, a Kingston 64 GB ssd. In idle the cpu temperature is typically 37 degrees Celsius. While watching a BR rip the temperature rise to ~45C. Once after a movie I have seen the temperature to rise to 49C, which is the hottest I have seen. I have only used the temperature reading within XBMC. Not sure if that is accurate enough. My os is ubuntu 13.10.

Then i think i have too high temps.
Although i am using it for many diffrent things including transcoding and i have windows 8 pro.
On one profile i am running xbmc and on diffrent i am logged with remote desktop and running sgzbd headphones and couch potato. when i log out from xbmc and push only proc using transcoding 100% cpu usage i go up to 75.
It seems this is hd5000 which is giving this extra C.

Altough hasswell should work up to 100C and on my gaming lap 94 is usual temp iam not scared.
