Posted July 21, 2020 Hey, so im using a NZXT H510 case and i have a Corsair H100x AiO and i accedently made the fans in the front , exhaust the air instead so when i changed that, i suddenly noticed that my pc got like 5-9 celcius hotter, any reasons why? my gpu with intake fans in the front (which should be the ideal air flow everyone has) gives me hotter temperature in the pc, than when i had exhaust fans in the front , around 80 on load Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 21, 2020 Put it back where it was and pull the filter because it’s useless anyway? Not a pro, not even very good. I’m just old and have time currently. Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake. Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

Posted July 22, 2020 I assume you have open-air style GPU. So it has two or more fans on the side as intake and it exhausts to every direction. So ofc having exhaust fan right next to heatsink makes things better. ^^^^ That's my post ^^^^ <-- This is me --- That's your scrollbar --> vvvv Who's there? vvvv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 25, 2020 The nzxt h500 works better with negative pressure. The fresh air comes from the unused pcie slots below the gpu so an all exhaust config should be better for that case.
