So for my next build Im going to be building a custom plexi case. It will be small form factor. The power supply will have its own air intake and be sealed from drawing air out of the case. 4 fans will pressurize the case, roughly 150+ cfm. This case will be completely sealed including where the fans attach to the inside of the case. Like i will seal around the edges of the fans. parts list as follows

 

Price limit is Around 600-800 for hardware, looking to stay small form. Definitely Stuck AMD as i dont deal with intel prices.

This will be an upgrade from My current Build with a a10 7870k Oc'd to 4.4ghz on air with graphics Oc'd to 950mhz

MODEL

MasterFan Pro 120 Air Balance RGB  for two of the case fans as i get two rgb fans with the cooler to use as case fans May change fans 

 

Now I know this sounds crazy But my plan for something different by sealing the case completely air tight is dust reduction and to not have fans attached directy to the radiator THATS RIGHT no fans on the radiator I will be using the case pressure instead.

 

Will this work, In theory it should work pretty well as you will have the pressure of four fans forcing through the radiator instead of two.

 

The area Around the IO shield will also be sealed using a clear silicon in a clean unnoticeable manor. 

 

I think that this is something different and i would really like everyone's opinion on this build. This is not my first build I have three previous Computers under my belt and also service other peoples when needed, I just dont have the money to go all out all that often.

Its kinda a curiosity thing, if it doesnt keep it cool I can always make sure to leave room to mount the fans to the rad, but you would think that the amount of air pressure inside the case would be enough With something so small
