    I'm a builder through and through.
    I like seeing the build, and experiencing it. Using a chiller like that kinda seems like cheating to me.

    About a week ago, the Tested youtube channel posted a video with Adam Savage building a custom refrigerant loop that exchanges heat to a water cooling loop so that he can cool himself off while wearing full body cosplay for example a space suit.
     
    The video has a refrigerant expert that actually made the cooling systems for NASA's experimental suits for the "High Seas" experiments.
     
    My connection, is that while using said system you can get 800W of cooling off a radiator smaller than a 120mm fan that you can connect to a separate water (or alcohol in the video) cooling loop.
     
    Now I don't exactly have the capital to invest in the components to make my own system, but also think that using a similar system to cool a pc loop would be freaking awesome.
    Especially because it would be basically Linus' hacked apart air conditioner, but specially build and sealed making it a bit more safe as well (other than just putting an enclosure around it to prevent shocks)
     
    Really cool system that I'd like to see cooling a PC in the future.

    Ah yes, I think I've peeked at that one before. I have a GTX 1060 SC single-fan, so it's short but not low-profile.
    After letting YouTube autoplay LTT a bit I saw a server rack, so I'm browsing those on Newegg currently. Thanks for helping

    mwomp got a reaction from ProtoflareX in Questions about positive and negative air pressure within a case.   
    Blowers are loud but exhaust heat from the case over the heatsink, directly out the back. They also tend to run much hotter. These are suggested if you have restricted space inside the case- good for small builds.
    Internal exhaust doesn't direct heat out the back, it forces the air from inside the case over the heatsink, but doesn't direct the air out the back, it just gets "recycled" in the case.
    Single fans are louder and run hotter than double fans. Most of the cards available will be the internal exhaust, that seems to be the current trend.
