H100i GTX and Air 240

Hello all,

 

Just picked up an H100i GTX to dump into my Air 240 HTPC build.  Specs will be at the end of this post.  I noticed that with my graphics card in there and the stock intel cooler, there seems to be a tremendous amount of heat.  This is utilizing the stock fans as intake in the front and exhaust out the top.  With that said, I am going to install the H100i to keep things a bit cooler and was contemplating continuing the intake in the front but in push/pull with the top as exhaust.  I was going to utilize two SP120's as the pull and the stock fans as the push. 

 

Should I potentially configure this differently?

 

Specs:

i5 4590

Gigabyte H97

EVGA GTX 780 SC

 

Thanks

i woudnt mix fans like that in push/pull. And it is proven to not really perform better than push or pull.

 

My suggestion is some AF series fans in the front, and then the SP' on the rad

Nathan,

 

Thanks for the reply.  I only have SP fans.  I might have some older Cooler Master fans around that move some serious air, but nothing AF series.
