I Love Lamp Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 So I just got this case a while ago hella cheap, and I plan on moving my current rig over to it. Now the problem I'm trying to currently solve is the fan situation. I'm not sure if you can see all the slots, but the case contains the following: 1 120mm front fan 2 120mm rear fans 1 80mm fan on the top of the case 4 120mm side fans I've never made a build with so many fans, and I was wondering, does anyone know the best intake/exhaust setup for a case like this?

Clark Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 All blowing in, with the oil heater right next to it. I think that would work best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ2 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 yes.... sorry lamp, I didn't see you're awesome link to the case in your first post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Love Lamp Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 Alright, just waiting on Waffle's SLOW ASS to send me my fans (out of seven fans slots, NZXT provides me with 3...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slazenger Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 The two fans in front suck air in. The fan on top blow outs massive amounts of air, even at low rpms. Mounted on the side with the viewing window, I have another 120mm blowing directly onto my graphics card. And the last fan on the top back blows out air rapidly as well. As long as you arrange them to work together, blow cool air on the hotspots, and try to let the air have a path that isn't obstructed by tons of wires/etc...you'll be good. <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Love Lamp Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 I was about to have that case, but Xoxide sold out of them as I was checking out :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waffle<3 Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 They are all taped up and ready to go, unfortunately, my way of package protection(3 broken motherboards) is to heavy so I had to fill the box with this, like papery substance.
