Enthoo Pro Fan Placement

[Sphinx_Knight]

Hey guys,

So I have the Phanteks Enthoo Pro case. I have a question on airflow. I mounted two intakes on front, one intake on the bottom, one exhaust on in the back. All fans are 140 mm. I have an H110 mounted on the top and I currently have it as an intake.

Is 5 intakes and one exhaust too much for the one exhaust to handle? Or should I flip the fans on the radiator to exhaust?

You should definitely change the H110 to an exhaust, always try to get a neutrally pressured system. 

Edit: Or if you're able to you could place ther H110 at the front and use it as an intake and then move the 140mm fans that were at the front and use them as exhausts on the top.

By the way, I have one more 140 mm fan slot left on the top of the case after I mount everything else please let me know if I should utilize that slot.

That's fine.

You could just leave it.

If I change the H110 to exhaust, I could utilize that fan to create positive/negative pressure.

Try it both ways and see what the temp difference is.

How would I test for temp?

I personally use realtemp for the cpu and msi afterburner for the gpu.

the enthoo pro can easily handle all intake as the case can naturally exhaust

the interior air. to aid in the process, the rear could be made to exhaust.

the pro is not an air tight chassis so more intake to exhaust is a better effect,

especially if using a GPU with non-reference cooling solution (pressure could

push the air from GPU to rear I/O)

 

dual 140 intake, dual roof intake or exhaust and rear I/O intake or exhaust.
