Case with Internal angled fan?

Archon42

What I am looking for is something like what the NZXT Phantom 820 does; direct a dedicated angled fan to blow air over the GPU(s) (don't need on on the side panel).

Link: 

Any more modern cases with this feature or similar?

Any recommendations would be most welcome. Thank you. :-)

Dont think you can get one with a fan blowing on the gpu. but why would you want to have a dedicated fan to blow on the gpu?

i spent $3500(23,000dkr.) on building my pc and i only play csgo on low settings..

:Specs:

CPU: Intel Core i7-6700  CPU: Cooler: H100i v2  GPU: Gigabyte GTX 1080 G1 Gaming  RAM: Corsair Dominator 3000mhz 16GB  SSD: Kingston 960 GB  Motherboard: ASUS ROG Maximus viii Formula  PSU: Corsair RM 750x 80+ Gold  CASE: Coolermaster H500P

The GPU gotta have some pleasure as well ;))

 

On a more serious note, There is no reason to have a fan facing the GPU(s). Their own fans does the work better anyways. I´d just recommend that you give the case some airflow, keep the air moving, so something like a good exhaust fan in the back does that for you no problems.

Case: Corsair Graphite 760T || PSU: Corsair RM650i || Mobo: Asus RoG Strix Z270E || CPU: Intel i5-7600K @4.8GHz || Cooler: Corsair H110i v2 || RAM: Corsair Vengeance DDR4 3200MHz 16GB White LED || GPU: MSI GTX 1070 8GB GAMING X || SSD: Samsung 850 Evo 250GB, Samsung 860 Evo 500GB, Samsung MZ1280 M.2 128GB || HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB

Me and my friend, we both have MSI 980Ti Gaming 6G cards.

 

My idle temps inside my Inwin 909 (intake at the bottom of the case) = 60-65 degree celsius = fans intermittently turn on and off. Full load temps = 80-90 degrees C.

His idle temps inside the NZXT Phanton with a 140 blowing air all the time on his GPU = 40-50 degree celsius = his fans are off when idle. Full load temps = 67-77 degrees C.

 

 

Way I see it, idle fans = well preserved GPU fans = which add value when trying to sell my GPU later (had to sell a GPU with a fan not working or one that has slowed down). Fans working less should also mean less dust accumulation on the blades. Given the room temperatures of 30 degree celsius and high humidity in Dhaka, Bangladesh (where I live), having any assistance in keeping the card cool would be a boon.

While I understand that I have a limited sample size of just two very different cases, but given what I am seeing, I assume it will help out in the environment in Bangladesh.

id rather have a fan dragging air out of the cooler so it dosent circulate the case any more

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!
