Corsair 300R Fan Allocation


Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

 

I got a little bit over zealous on the holiday season and instead of upgrading one or two parts, I pretty much bought a new rig. (Don't tell my wife!) As part of the new setup, I really wanted to give these pseudo water coolers a go. I ended up installing the H80i GT in an exhaust setup with a push pull config. I am wondering what other fans I should include. I'll link a picture below for reference.

 

My Spec

- CPU: Intel 4690K

- Cooler: Corsair H80i GT

- Mobo: Asus Z97-a 3.1 USB compatible

- GPU: EVGA 780 TI

- SSD Samsung PRO 120 GIG

- HD WD Black 640 GIG

- RAM: G.SkillL DDR3 2x8 GB Sticks

- Case: Corsair 300R

Things to note:

- CPU cooler fans are the corsair supplied 120mm

- The front of my case only has 1 x 140mm

- The side plate has two spots for 120 mm fans that are empty

- The top has an empty grill that could fit 2x 140 mm fans

 

Any feedback would be appreciated. The whole positive vs negative pressure topic has me a bit on the fence.

 

Thanks in advance.

That is an impressive amount of cooling. How are the temps?
