Hi all,

 

I just built me a gaming computer with a AMD ryzen 7 3800x 8 core cpu and i got the corsair carbide 678c case it come with 3 case fans that are hooked to a pwm repeater. The repeater and fans came with case and was wondering how to get better cooling performance without water cooling what type of case fans should I buy and how many and I want as silent as possible. I use it mainly for iracing. Thanks for the help. Picture shows current setup sorry for the reflection of bed in side panel pic

move your top fan to the front of your case. its better to have 2 front fans and 1 back fan instead of 1 front fan and 2 back fans.

also move your gpu to the highest pcie slot, this way it cant get air propberly

Any particular reason why you're using the lower PCIe slot for your GPU? On many boards the lower full sized slot might only be 8x electrically.

Damn that's the first time I've heard of cooler clearance issues like that in a while. But hey, if it's a 16x slot then all the power to ya!

Thanks I wasn't sure myself to have graphics card that close to cpu cooler so I put it there for space
