the way i see it the aio only get 1 fan of fresh air flow聽 and the gpu exhaust in to the aio... i would put the aio and intake. or you can put the aio on top and have bottem top intake and side back exhaust. dont no witch will be cooler thow. the intake from the top should help the vrm temps

聽

as for sli temps nothing you can really do. only water cool them.

I had mentioned this earlier and still agree. although rgb fans are p12s too. personally think the rgb fans would look better at the top as performance would be the same.

Move the rad to the top as exhaust with P12's. You can flip the RGB fans at the side for intake.聽

I might be crazy here but I think you have too many fans. There's no place for the air to go efficiently.聽

if ur saying im wrong聽 with all the data out there telling you that push is 1-3c better than pull...聽聽

btw i did a push vs pull on a QL120聽 6c diffrence聽

Hi everyone, I found the optimal solution:

聽

1. Rad on top, fans pulling, exhaust

2. Bottom intake

3. Side Exhaust

4. Rear intake! Sounds strange, but this gives the rad cold air.

聽

The side exhaust now without resistance from the rad sucks the GPU air out so well I'm actually experiencing a ~15 degree drop in GPU temperatures all around...honestly very surprised. At idle right now the GPUs are ~33 and ~39. Ambient is about ~22. This is with the default fan curve, meaning the lower cooler card's fan isn't spinning at all while the top as at it's lowest (30%).

Tell me about ur testing 馃檪
3 intake and 7 exhaust聽+ top rad + pull on top rad = Worst + worst + worst聽 ( and ur saying = best )聽 聽interesting馃槃

Testing involves running Furmark & Cinbench for 15 minuetes.聽

聽

The initial setup had temperatures like:

CPU: ~100

GPU 1: ~82

GPU 2: ~72

聽

Current setup:

CPU ~70

GPU 1: ~79

GPU 2: ~64

Computers r fun

CPU temps are better now cuz the CPU no longer has to deal with the GPU air.聽
GPU Temps can only be explained by cooler RoomT聽

So how about those intakes? 馃檪
