A. Pirate Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 (edited) yes, CFM for the 230mm intake fan (156.3) & 140mm (73.2) plus the 2 120mm (43.5 each fan) fans for exhaust are nearly the same. would be that good then? anyway, will get back to you guys after I set up everything. thanks again! The idea is that you want all of your fans to balance out. With this set up, you'll have 156.3 blowing in and 160.2 blowing out. That's only +3.9 CFM. That's about as balanced as you can get. BTW, I really like your case. It's clean and open. I meant to mention that earlier. Edited March 14, 2014 by A. Pirate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiaNist Posted March 16, 2014 Author Share Posted March 16, 2014 question, I've installed my aftermarket cooler but its heatsink sits too close with my gpu pcb? there's no contact between the heatsink & pcb (double checked it but it's really close to each other). the only thing that touches the gpu pcb is the plastic side fan of the cooler. would this be bad? is the gap between the tw0 acceptable given that there is enough airflow? here are some pics: btw, i also want to know if i positioned the cooler & the fans correctly based on the airflow: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanaraud Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Does the CPU aftermarket cooler bend graphics card, does it have friction with graphics PCB metal contacts? Also graphics fans are pointed to other direction? CPU coolers vibration could start to play with mechanical contacts but as it barely touches graphics it shouldn´t be a problem neither? Also if its only plastic touching plastic parts of PCB then it should be ok, but touching metal parts of PCB then I´d dismount the CPU fan and see if the fan gathers static electricity? Just my random thoughts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my random thoughts. So far I havent seen any problem with my gpu. Well I've read somewhere that I could put electrical tape on the side part of the cpu cooler fan where it touches the gpu pcb. Hopefully that would solve the static electricity problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
