Carbide Air 540 Airflow Question

[NikolasDude]

I have a very severe problem where my computer puts out too much heat in my room, I do realize a case is not going to make a difference in how much heat the parts produce, but will it output less heat than the H440?

My current specs are:

AMD FX-8350 (Might upgrade to Intel, which has better temperatures right?) w/ H110i water cooler
Sabertooth AM3+ Motherboard R2.0
GTX 770 EVGA
Corsair HX650 Power Supply
Ripjawz 8x2 Gigabytes of RAM

The case you have will have no effect on the amount of heat your components are generating. You'll need to find a cooling solution like a portable AC unit or more fans for your room to help keep things cooler.

I currently have a h110i watercooling thing for my CPU, if I went back to my Hyper 212 EVO would that make a difference at all? I heard that watercooling puts out alot of heat but cools the CPU well

So you're asking if the 540 will dissipate the heat better than the h440? That I don't know but what I can tell you is that the 540 was designed to promote airflow with out restrictions. It's the best caes I've owned for air cooling. You'll need to provide your current specs as that can play a factor also as well as your room temp.

The main giving off heat are GPU/CPU/PSU and if their heatsinks/fans are clogged with dust, they'll obviously be producing alot more heat and not cooling effectively.
Have you checked to see if they are clogged with dust? Also if the mesh dust filters are thick lined with dust.

A H440 in comparison would have more space for much better airflow and more cooling options, so yes it would help in cooling better and so reducing heat output too.

Also if not already done so before replacing case, are you using all fan mounts available? top/rear exhaust, front intake

-dusting
-more fans

Is your room generally warm? could you place the pc closer to your windows, leaving the vent open?

Currently with my H440, my room gets VERY hot to the point where I have to leave very commonly and get sleepy

I believe my room, atleast in the other home where the problem still existed, is always cool unless if my computer is on. My computer is located on the floor under my desk, not touching a carpet. I dont think I have used all fan mounts available and dont know if a intake our (i think outtake its called) fans will help me out in this situation. To my knowledge there are 2 dust filters on the H440, PSU and front right? I check those often and clean them out.

Have you checked which component is the main cause of major heat?
Could use this if not other tools or mobo software http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html

How would I check how much heat its producing? I have checked temperatures before and my PC seems to remain cool at almost all time, but just the air in my room isn't
