Hi,
I recently built a PC with the coolermaster H500. Running a 2080 and a 9900k isn’t fun though, since the 9900k isn’t able to cool off and residual heat builds up at the top and on the cpu. Definitely going to get a top fan to blow this air out, but is there a way to get the fan on the side near the CPU to blow inward? If so, is it recommended? If not, would adding a second output top fan change that because it applies the negative force necessary to drive heat from the GPU upward, where it is removed and cooled if nearby the CPU... I’m trying to avoid only feeding my CPU warm air so I was thinking this would be a perfect way to cool it down even in high GPU load. I know I’ve said a lot so lmk if you have any questions on the way I am picturing this. I can sketch a diagram if that would help, but it may or may not be easy enough to understand without it.
