SG13 fan help
3 minutes ago, splootbloot said:I'm cooling a Ryzen 5 5600x with an estimated wattage of 65w. The GPU is an XFX RX 570 and, from my experience, is pretty decent at maintaining temperature with 2 80mm fans in a large case. I'm pretty sure the 140 should do me fine, as I'm already using Noctua CPU cooler. And yes, I am using the mesh one.
Thank you again!! I'll be switching out the 120 in my list for a 140!
OK you will definitely want a 140. Also recommendation for if you buy a new GPU, get a blower card. Those work best in that case since they exhaust all heat straight out the back, instead of dumping it into the case and since there are no exhaust fans it really has nowhere to go.
Now IF your CPU fan is good enough to suck in air from the sides you could have that front 140 as exhaust, remove the dust filter in the front under the mesh (there's another dust filter behind the mesh) and that might work better.
