What are the best airflow directions on a case?
What are the best airflow directions on a case?
Every direction like your pick basically, the rest is mostly memery, good flow is what you want so open (mesh) front is ideal.
Always Front to back
Bottom intake sucks in dust
Top outlets unnecessary
This. The only variable is how much air you can get in and get out. One of these being the limiting factor.
Now just don't do anything stupid like imputing air from just above your output, if that's even possible.
in and out
in and out
in and out
Back in my days kiddos, we didn't have case fans.
You could argue that just having input is enough, as long as air can get out.
Pressure is gonna equilibrate with the outside, you see?
Are rotated design cases still a thing? I used to have a silverstone FT02 which was a monster but I gave it away because I wanted a smaller build, but I miss the quirky design, it had excellent thermals that case and it wasn't remotely loud
even my pentium 3 case had fans nigga, nice try
front to back up, bottom up
I can't get over this fucking GPU sag / PCI slot abuse
I had no fans on my Duron 800, and it was totally fine, white man.
oh i took the fan out because it was loud, but the case came with it
Natural convection is meme. fan direction doesn't matter as long u don't suck cold air out. airflow over VRM might extend the lifetime of your Board. GPU cooling increases FPS. while cpu cooling for gayming is not necessary.
Like the one in your pic but with fans on the side instead of top/bottom.
Tfw case has next to no airflow and all temps stay below 30 idle and 40-50 for my loaded use. Based brown fans.
1. Don’t live in some jungle shithole
2. Clean dust from the pc and use good filters to remove 90% of dust to begin with, and a heap filter
3. Buy brown coolers and fans. Bq is a good substitute
I'd like to put an exit fan at the green question mark, I have 3 different fans with different rpm
what order?
1) get the dust out of that fucker
2) think about everything else
it's not that much dust tho
the thing that bugs me is that I have nowhere to put all the cables
Meshify C Mini or normal atx
Or nzxt if you like
Cooler Master Masterbox NR400 or bigger
Just slap the second CPU cooler fan to that green thing dude and see what happens with temps.
Rpm of your fans are controlled by the motherboard bios or software in os.
As long as you maintain positive air pressure, the rest don't matter much. Pic related is a good basic start
Dual GPU is dead on vidiya so no more sagging fucko
Intake from the front and top, exhaust from the front
No one wants dust on the front of the case.
Intake from back and top*
>take a case with a massive filtered front grill
>don't utilize it
top comment
Intake on the front will always collect dust on the front of the case, it's gross and ugly.
