[noobybloo]

Hi im new here so im not sure if anyone will see this lol but i was wounder if anyone can help me with airflow to help my GPU temps and also too see if i can fit my AIO on top of my case

Hello and welcome to the forum Please list your parts if you want us to see if you can fit your AIO at the top of your case.  What case do you got?  what AIO? Any extra fans in the case? . We'll figure this out!  The best way to lower your GPU temps is to get more fresh air into the case, either front or from the bottom.

oh wow thanks i will try my best to list as much as i can here goes,

case-MASTERBOX MB520 from master cooler

GPU-GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER™ VENTUS OC

AIO-H100i RGB PRO XT Liquid CPU Cooler

i have the AIO at the front with 2 fans on them intaking and a single one at the bottom intaking too. The 2 fans on the AIO i dont feel the air as strong as the one at the bottom which is not on the AIO

I also have only one fan at the back for exhaust. I hope this helps i can send some pics to if u want.

Yeah the fans drawing air through the radiator is going to draw less air due to the resistance of the radiator.  The air will also be slightly warmer of course and that is what the GPU has to work with.  Its not all about fresh air but its about replacing the air inside the case as fast as possible and not have any hot air lingering.
The AIO-H100i RGB PRO XT is a 240mm radiator and the MASTERBOX MB520 supports a 240mm radiator on top so you could mount it there, pushing air from the case to the outside.  Then you can add 2 high airflow fans in the front that will definitely give your 2070 Super a lot more air to work with.  This is a common method   There are different programs you can use to adjust the fan speed of most fans ( If they are PWN / 4pin ).

ok cool i will buy some good fans im thinking of these on amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B09C6DQDNT/ref=ox_sc_saved_image_3?smid=A38F5RZ72I2JQ&psc=1

also here is a picture of a cable im thinking im going to have trouble with fitting my aio cooler at the top what do you think.

Agree with above advice.

 

If you’re still not achieving the temps/noise you want after those tweaks, read this. It states you should be able to use the mesh front panel of the MB511 on your case, which will allow your front fans to pull in more air & potentially lower the noise of your system due to your components running cooler.

Noctua fans are excellent. I have 1 of these as bottom fan in my case as well. One of the best fans out there
There should not be a problem with that cable, you can see the screw hole is quite far out from the cable itself!  You can see that they accounted for the space of the cable by having the screw hole quite far out. . Shouldn't be a problem at all. Looks like you got 1-1.5cm of clearance from that cable
Buy some compressed air as well ( Compressed air in a can for PC cleaning )  to clean out your radiator while you are dismanteling it to move it up top, clean your GPU as well ( Hold the fans with your finger when blowing air )  Dust accumulation can really increase temperature.

Your motherboard manufacturer usually have their own program to adjust fans when you have fans connected to the CHA_FAN headers on your motherboard.
ASUS use Fan Xpert 4 -  Gigabyte use Smart Fan 5 / Gigabyte control center - MSI uses MSI Dragon Center etc etc. If you know your motherboard, I can find a link for you.  It can also be done straight from the BIOS on certain computers.  Sounds good though, hope it helps with some more airflow / cleaning your GPU with air.  If you need any help at all when time comes you can DM me here on the forum if you want, I'm always around

No problem! Thats why we are here, we love to help and bring more people into PC building!   Here is a link for the MSI dragon center, you can adjust the fans and a lot more fun stuff. And at the bottom is a link for the introduction to the program. Definitely a lot to read but you can click on 'How to adjust the fan speed' and see how that is done.

No problem mate!  Keep in touch, interested to see how you get on

There are lots of great fans out there from Noctua, DeepCool, be quiet!, ThermalRight, and more.  Some, like Arctic P12, are cheap and do a good job. However if you want the best in terms of pushing air with 120 mm, you should get the Phanteks T30. It beats Noctua's fans and all others.

 I've got a bunch of fans on order that I'm going to test as soon as I have the wind tunnel and then I can make reviews of them.

Sorry about the typos - Mr. Otto Rong was messing me up. I have to edit my first fan comparison video and hopefully put it up in a few days. Also, the T30 is by Phanteks, not TR.
