airflow

My case is NZXT's h500. I'm looking to replace my stock fans, which are 2 exhausts, one rear and one top. Both are right next to one another. Anyways, I'm wondering how having a 120mm and a 140mm in that case's set up could effect air flow?? Since their both exhausts, would the rear 120mm...

Hey all, The title is pretty self explanatory for what I'm asking. Can a Noctua-D15h fit in a Rosewill S500 case? I'm trying to cool an I7-8700k and OC it and I want to use this cooler for it, but it's hard to find any info whether this Rosewill case will fit it. Ive measured from the cpu...

Hello all, I am new to AIOs and watercooling in general. I am thinking of changing my current CPU air cooler for an AIO and I have some questions. Firstly, which way should my radiator fans blow? The case I will probably be using will be a Meshify S2 and I will probably mount the radiator up...

CPU: Ryzen 5 2600x (non oc) The only fan in the case is 1 at the back. Size is 120mm. Could an RTX 2060 run healthily in this environment without overheating itself or any other components? (all at gaming load). Is it worth buying a whole new case so I can fit front fans to create better airflow?

I'm looking for a decent case with High Airflow. I really wanted the Cooler Master H500 but unfortunately it's not available at almost any store here. It's out of stock everywhere and it's not supplied with sufficient amounts here in Egypt. That's why I'm looking for an alterative. The Cooler...

As the title suggests my PC is having a BAD issue with the airflow, and I am at my wit's end to fix it. To elaborate, I recently switched cases, from a cooler master elite 130 to a new Phanteks Enthoo Evolv ITX. Initially when I made the switch my GPU overheated even when it idled (around...

I've been playing around with my case fans trying to increase efficacy. A series of two fan in a small duct seems to have made the air flow more laminar and increased the pressure yielded. (I ordered an anemometer to get some real measurements.) Another approach to try is adding a cone in the...

I'm going to be building a new computer as soon as the Ryzen 9 drops. Along with the 3900X, I'll be using my R9 380 for the time being, six to eight drives, and likely a Gen 4 M.2 SSD in my Define R5 case. I'm starting to look around for parts now, but I'm still kind of a n00b when it comes to...

There are so many different case fans that corsair makes, what are the differences between them? Here are the 4 they make: ML1x0, LL1x0, HD1x0, and SP1x0. There's so many options, but they're all listed within the same RPM range, so i'm confused why there's 4 different versions if they're all...

Y’all think this NZXT H500 Non I Series is fine for airflow using the Corsair H100i Pro AIO series thingy? I would use it as Intake then the rear fan and top fan as exhaust. Good enough airflow since this case is enclosed or jkst laser cut this pain into some air flow design...? (Yes I can do...

Hi all, I recently built a new PC and have been benchmarking and testing my single-fan EVGA GTX 1060 ("Superclocked" version I believe) with MSI Afterburner for a few days. Running the MSI Kombustor benchmark causes my GPU temperature to climb to over 90 degrees C, even when I set the fan speed...
