Posted September 20, 2018 I buy a air tunnel online and use it to redirect cool air into the rig. You can order the tunnel in different length. I'm using it for my captain 240 white. I move the fans on top of the rig. The screws for the fan ain't long enough so I have to zip tie it down ,until the nut and bolt I order arrive. It is sucking in cool air from my air-con. I'm planing to get more of the air tunnel and build a independent air tunnel for the CoolerMaster 212x I have. Update I added back two of the original fans on the radiator. Then I run AIDA 64 My i5 8600k At 4700 MHz At 4900 Mhz At 5000 Mhz Somehow the temperature and voltage got lower at 5000 MHz. I'm using gigabyte easy tune to overclock and i set the voltage setting at auto ,perhaps that's why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 20, 2018 With an open sided gfx cooler like that make sure you are pulling air into the case through the CPU AIO, that should drop the CPU temps noticeably. edit: This means you can hook your shroud to one of the AIO cooler fans if its pulling in.

Posted September 20, 2018 Be careful of humidity. The recently cooled air like that going through the condensation rish air conditioner can be a bit more humid.

Posted September 20, 2018 you're prob better off connecting the tube to the exhaust side of the radiator so you can dumb that heat from your pc out of the room. i still like the idea tho, be careful of condensation as well Recent build: Fractal Design - Torrent review / Meshify C / The 1080TI Strix Noctua mod / Define S X58 Xeon build / Specs: i7-14700KF 5.8Ghz - ASUS TUF RTX 4080 super - G.Skill Ripjaws 32GB 4000mhz CL18 - Gigabyte Z690 Gaming X d4 - Torrent Fractal Design white - EVGA 850W Supernova G2 80+ Gold - Noctua D15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 20, 2018 Author I tested the condensation problem, no condensation were seen if I turn off the air-con for more than 10 mins before I turn off my computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you meant "out of" the case? Everything else is an intake. With an open cooler graphics card, the radiator pumping warm air into the case, and everything else intaking as well, that would just be a torture box.

The fans don't fit with the ram on, i have to file down a corner of the fan in order to fit. The rig will get 5-8 c hotter without it I see that's a name for the thing LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The obvious answer would be to flip the roles of the fans. Those that are intake would flip to exhaust, pull in through the AIO, pull out through the other fans.
