Cooler Master Fan Config help

vjizzle2384

My case has is Cooler Master MB500

 

Am getting a 240 mm AIO Liquid Cooler for this case now when I bought it I thought it had space to mount a radiator on the top.  This only has space for it to have one in the front so my question is how do I configure fans from the radiator push or pull? And where will i my case fans for intake and exhaust ?

The first picture that you posted is the ideal airflow configuration you want.

Front fans are intake, and the rear + top are exhaust.

 

As for setting up the radiator fans as either push or pull, that will not matter.

Personally, I would go for a push configuration for the radiator.

Where will I have intake at if the radiator pushs air out the front

I have this case, with a 360mm AIO mounted in the front location, and the fans are mounted in the same location as the stock fans come on the on out side of the front frame behind the front plastic panel.

2 top exhaust fans, 1 rear exhaust

Top, but I would advice against front exhaust. Your GPU will lack airflow, since you can't have bottom intake. It's better to keep front as intake. Temps for GPU will still be higher than when having rad at top, but better than without almost any direct airflow.

 So you absolutely have no intake is your intake coming into the front bringing warm air from the radiator and be exhaust from the top and back?

NO intake? intake is from the front, pushing air thru the radiator in to the case.

 

The radiator does not generate that much hot air to effect anything in side the case. My temps here with avg room temp of 25c, at gaming load playing say PUBG, 61c GPU 55c CPU 8700k at 5ghz.

Here man, this is how all my fans are mounted. I have found this to be the best set up. I have also tried push pull with 3 exhaust fans with radiator in same location and it rendered the same temps. This PC while gaming you can hear the fans but while doing anything else is dead silent.

Yeah I don’t game without a headphones and mine are noise canceling so I could never hear noise outside my headphones for the fan noise t. make a difference to me.  

thank you for showing me your set up this helps me a lot, I’m just still confused how the radiator doesn’t produce that much heat guessing because you have a 360 mm,  My buddy has the same liquid cooler as you but 240mm and his blows hot air while gaming.

He means that rad doesn't raise temps so much that it would be worse for GPU than having top as intake. Also having rad as intake will have better CPU temps so it's win-win. But if you don't believe us, you can very easily run your own testing.

It has nothing to do with believing you guys, it just confusing to me.   So should I just make my set up like his the rad in front as intake and the one back fan and two top fans as exhaust. And you were saying as for my GPU it will get little more hotter the usually, my game Gpu temps are no higher than 65c and same with CPU on ultra.

I would recommend running a custom GPU fan curve with MSI Afterburner, as my FE card is not very loud, i have mine running 100%  fan after 60c.

Thank you so much for your help and taking the time to give me a screenshot one more question what liquid color are you using is it the ML360R RGB?

 

oh check this pc cooling thought you’d get a kick out the of it..

Depends on what you want.

 

I use to have the CoolerMaster MA620P, which is a 200w twin tower air cooler, only went to the 360 aio as I wanted the 8700k at 5ghz.

 

For the 2600x, you could go any one of them options and still get about the same performance. The MB500 will fit a air cooler up to 165mm even tho the website states 160mm.

Before I went with the 360mm AIO i was looking at the Dark Pro 3/4, Noctua D15 and the Cryorig R1. 

 

It all comes down to what you want, I like air coolers, but with limited space i went with AIO.

CPU ~ i7 8700k @ 5.0ghz 1.285v | Motherboard ~ Gigabyte Z370 Aorus Gaming 5 | Cooler ~ CoolerMaster ML360R (With Corsair ML120 fans)  

RAM ~ 16gb G.Skill Sniper X 3000mhz | GPU ~ Nvidia RTX 2080 FE | PSU ~ Corsair RM1000x | Case ~ CoolerMaster MB500

 I’ve made my choice between dark pro 4, New Masterliquid 240 RGB (When I can find it) or New Black Noctua D15(Waiting for its release)
