    Corsair H80i V2 Fan replacement/ Pump position and case fans on Phanteks Evolv

    So I totally understand WHY you have configured things the way you have, and find no fault with your decisions. It is YOUR system and you can do AS you wish. Especially since you DO understand that because of your aesthetic choices some potential functionality or performance might be slightly...

    Corsair H80i V2 Fan replacement/ Pump position and case fans on Phanteks Evolv

    the only place I never recommend placing a radiator is at the top, in an intake configuration. So long as it is at the front in an intake configuration, at the top as an exhaust configuration or at the rear as an exhaust configuration, and there is otherwise sufficient airflow through the case...

    Corsair H80i V2 Fan replacement/ Pump position and case fans on Phanteks Evolv

    There is no such thing as ASUS compatible fans. There are only "fans", period. Some have RGB. Some are quieter than others. Some have higher or lower static pressure, but there are none that are just "compatible" with one brand or another. Fans are fans. They run off either straight 12v, are...

    1. As previously stated. It shouldn't matter. Ok. nice to hear. 2. I don't think this will matter much either. Above the radiator means that some of the exhaust is removed right away. Then again the radiator is partially obstructing air flow. Potentially reducing the fans efficiency. In the...

    Corsair H80i V2 Fan replacement/ Pump position and case fans on Phanteks Evolv

    That is how I have my GPU's radiator. It's installed in the top of my Vivo Titan. I don't want its hot exhaust "cooling" my rig. **On the user manual it says the hoses should face down for healtier results. Should i overlook this? Heat can pool at the top of the case. Having a fan there on low...
