All help is thoroughly appreciated gav. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nam.uk Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 add some fan shrouds if you can as they will make a big difference, these http://www.feser-one.com/site/index.php?cPath=81 or use some olf 120mm fans and cut the middle out, 30mm fan frame depth if you can.

parsec Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Any changes in your case fan configuration will depend mainly upon the radiator fan mounting, either pulling air into the case, or pushing air out of the case. Using outside air to cool the radiator is optimal, but you then must deal with the relatively warm air from the radiator being exhausted quickly and efficiently. Given your case and current case fan configuration (positive pressure) and the few mounting options you have for the radiator, you should have the radiator "outside" the case, meaning on top of the case I assume, with the radiator fans pushing air out of the case. I don't understand what you mean by, "... and the same fans as intake or exhaust." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
