Sup community!

 

So Im getting Define C case. 

L I paint,mod and do all kinds of nonsense to my pc. 

Currently I run 4930k at 4.4ghz at 1.37. EVGA FTW 1070. 4 drives, 6 case fans, and etc. Z79 Deluxe ASUS motherboard. +Corsair CX750m powersupply.

 

It is cooled by CM nepton240m (restored after my friend broke the tubes, I replaced those with 4mm thick silicon tubes).

 

This all is fit into core 1500 (fractal design case) YES it is mATX. YES I managed to fit ATX board in mATX case. Well I had my stupid reasons (cuz I wanted to take my pc as hand luggage in airplane)

1. Want to cool my 4930k with water. got some ghetto solution right now. I want to buy FD s36. Want to do 2 push-pull+1push(in the middle where gpu is)

Are htere better coolers? should i take 240? or maybe 280 on top?

 

2. what do u think is the best airflow method in this case ( i got 4 corsair sp120, 1 noctua nfp12, 1 CM silencio 120)

I am thinking about bequiet! fans. which are the best performing yet quiet fans out there?

Primarily neutral with an overall positive pressure.

 

I'd do 2 fans in the front, 2 fans as intake on the rad and then the rear as exhaust. Realistically though, it won't make a huge temperature difference in any config.

i thought i was the only one crazy enough to do that.. guess i'm wrong then :P

 

what i'd suggest is having one more fan set as intake than you have as exhaust, and if you have too many exhaust fans you cant flip around to make an intake (as in, no fan filter, if your intakes arent fan filtered you may as well do whatever) you just lower the speed of those and "eyeball" it until you're slightly positive.
