Air flow question

[Lapse998]

Hi guys,

 

I have a Cooler Master H500P case and have the two 200mm intake fans at front.

 

One 140mm exhaust fan on water cooler radiator. 

 

I have also two 200mm for the top of the case, should i use these as exhaust?

 

read a bit about positive and negative air flow

[emosun]

front/sides = intake

back top = exhaust

Gtx 1080ti

I disagree bro. Although the temp is negligible but just to keep the dust out, I think it should be 

#1

Front =intake (2 fan)

top = intake (2 fan)

back=exhaust (1 fan)

side= exhaust (1 fan)

 

So now, you have a nice positive pressure.

 

or

another crazy setup would be

#2

Front intake (2 fans)

top exhaust (2 fans)

back intake (1fan)

side intake (1fan)

 

By doing this, you satisfy 1) the natural movement of heat (this is actually negligible) and 2) create a neutral or slight positive pressure.

 

In whatever config you put it, you see a temp difference of max 3 celcius.

No need for anything. Current setup is fine. Run stress test and check temps.

@Lapse998 use your current setup.

if in this scenario you oc your 1080ti or you do other stuff you'll have sufficent cooling for both gpu and vrm.

StormWind, FPS in WoW always hops around in capitals. Outside around 140-165
