Meshify C and incredibly bad airflow.

After 10 minutes of furmark, my CPU (not gpu, cpu) gets around 70 degress in IDLE, same effect doesnt happen without side panel. Also my GPU will run around 8 degrees hotter than on work/testbench, and i cant run an occt on my cpu for like 20 minutes cause i need to wait for my case to cool down. How do i optimize airflow in this case? My fan setup has 2 stock fans from FD and one random fan from Zalman, and psu is facing downwards.

Make sure your fans are running. Mesh C's airflow is topnotch no doubt.

Strange, got a Meshify C myself and the airflow is way better than all my cases before this one.

But I do have:

2x 120 Corsair SP in the front.

1x 120 Corsair SP in the back.

2x 140 Corsair SP in the top.

I have overall 3 120 that are pretty bad I think, so maybe that's the reason? Btw how are yours 120 running in that config?

 I use 2 120's in the front (performance editions), let them run quite a bit faster than the 3 fans in the back/top, so I still have a tad bit of positive  air pressure :)

Problem is, both (cpu and you) are A LOT hotter. Same thing doesn't happen without side panel.
