Y’all think this is fine for airflow? Temps seem just fine but curious if I should change anything. Thanks!

    Hello hooosier-daddy, and thank you for your submission to Gaming PC! If you are new please check out our rules over at the wiki [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/gamingpc/wiki/rules)!
    We have recently added the useful feature of Title Flair! You can set this manually by clicking Flair under your post once you have submitted your post, but if you missed it in the rules there is a much better way that will automatically flair your post!

    To do this simply add what your post is about in brackets before your title. For example for a Build Log you can type [Build Log] before your post so that it looks like this; [Build Log]My new awesome build!, and the bot will automatically set your flair to Build Log! This works for Build Log, Build Showcase, News, Hardware News, Hardware Release, Discussion, and Miscellaneous!

    Also remember that this is a place for discussing and sharing our love of Gaming Computers! This is NOT the place for help building or determining what parts you should buy, that is better suited for /r/buildapc. Troubleshooting questions should be directed to /r/techsupport. Thank you again!

    That’s about as optimal as it’s gonna get with that setup.

  3. Just if you want to add fans you can add two or one fan in bottom. Just maybe for a better airflow for the GPU. Overall it’s good the way you have it.

    This is fan orientation post #3 that I’ve seen on my reddit feed just today of people asking if they have it “ok” or “fine” Screw you!! I’m over it

  5. that’s how i have my fans

    hot air rises so i like exhaust on top, and video cards exhaust out the rear, so i exhaust out the rear with the case fan

    Sweet. Needed a post like this. Going to run the same setup. Thanks for asking!

    This is how I have my case setup, with the fans for the liquid CPU cooler mounted horizontally on top like that. I had the same concerns when I built the system, but after almost two years of using my PC to play VR, I have never seen either my CPU or GPU temps go above 63 or 64 degrees Celsius.
    I even have that exact same liquid cooler (CoolerMaster). You’re good to go!

    Ik the hoses need to be on the right of the cooler but does it matter which side of the radiator they are on? Does it only mount one way?

    This does have negative pressure, so you’re gonna have to clean for dust more often.

    Do I placed 2x140mm on the front intake or 3x120mm? I have 3 140mm silent wings 4 pro. And 3 120mm dc fans that came with my case..
    My top only fit 2×120 or 2x140mm lol

    I wish your would route that 24 pin cable through the back of the case like you did for the USB cable.

  12. Affectionate_Sky_375

    That’s how it’s supposed to be.

  13. I member when a computer only had 1 fan of any. Lmao. I remember when all fans were supposed to point in/out.

  14. ClassicDocument3383

    This is exactly how I would have done it. You killed it, bruh. Good job.

  15. back vent should push air inside it would make the gpu cool fown a little more

    5000D? I see you’ve got the back plate installed? I assume you have another 3 fans on rear? And I assume they are also intake? So 6 intake and 3 exhaust? Great for keeping dust out! And it’s the config I went for too. Optimal for this case.
