  1. Good to know, thanks. Noise is of no real concern to me anyway, as they are quiet at idle and I wear headphones while playing games.
  2. Thanks for the detailed reply. My room actually felt like it was colder than it was during the time of the stock fan R23 run, which is what made me wonder. I haven't installed any games yet and they would have been a better indication of overall case temp it seems, so what you're saying does make sense. You mention a fan, the 'ML-Elite 140mm' (OEM version). I was trying to find out the exact model of my H170i radiator fans and I'm guessing that is the model? Would there be any benefit in switching to an AF fan for the intakes or would there be no point? I take it static pressure are fine for intake?
  3. Hi, I'm running an H170i AIO inside a 7000D Airflow. I have a spare H170i so yesterday I decided to replace the two stock 140mm intake case fans with the 3 fans from the spare H170. I figured those static pressure fans would still do a good job as intake, and I wanted the extra RGB to brighten up my case some more. However, I noticed I'm now getting slightly worse CB23 temps. On my 12900K, with stock case intakes, my temps (package) peaked at 80C after 30min. Now with those 3 AIO fans (guessing they are ML140s?) on the front, it hits 80C in less than 10mins.. All fans at 100% for both tests. Is it worth replacing those fans? Thought they would perform better (as it's 3 intake fans vs 2 stock AND they are higher RPM) but I was wrong. Any good alternatives? They need to be RGB. This is my system setup btw:
