Fans?

[DaGallane]

Does this build have enough air distribution in it, or will I need more fans? Thanks.

With out building it too see temps there is no real way of telling.

The define S comes with two 140mm fans. I'd probably put both of those in the front and get one more for a rear exhaust. But if you just wanted to keep it like it is (one intake, one exhaust) that's plenty of airflow considering you've got a non-k chip.

Unless your case has special needs, two intakes and one exhaust is a good rule of thumb. I try to ensure that I have more air coming in than going out to keep positive pressure and force dust out.

So do I need to purchase a separate fan or is there already 3 included? Thanks.

Fractal's site says it comes with two GP-14 fans. You could pick up one more fan if you wanted to, or just roll with the included fans to start out and see if you need another intake at all.

Apologies on asking so many questions, but is there an indicator that dictates whether or not I will need a new fan? Will certain parts overheat quicker than others,so I need to monitor those parts? Thanks.

The odds of anything overheating in your system are pretty low. I use HWMonitor to keep track of temps, among other vital pieces of system info. I should probably just go ahead and set it to boot with Windows at this point--it's always running on my second monitor. I also use SpeedFan, also freeware, to set curves and control fans. It's also always running on my second monitor. Between the two programs, I'm just conditioned at this point to, if my fans ramp up unexpectedly, look over at SpeedFan and HWMonitor to see what's up.

 

Between those two programs, you'll be able to tell if anything is too hot. Just listening to your system fans helps as well. If they're ramping up for no reason, you might want to check your temps.

It defiantly needs more cooling, I've attached some images of what I would recommend...

Just kidding, it's probably fine.

Then I guess you willl need 2-3 fans.
