Hi,
so as you can see above I need to know whether it's better to go for a GPU with a axial fan or radial fan.
The problem is that the airflow in that area is really bad as the GPU is mounted directly under the top of the case with the fans facing up and not much space to get air from the sides.
Typically I'd go for a radial fan design as it pushes the air out, but I'm not sure whether the small radial fan is able to get enough air to keep the GPU cool.
The GPU will be a GTX 960, not the biggest problem when it comes to cooling, but still...Even this card nees a little ventilation to work properly
Oh, and FYI: I'll use an SFX-L PSU, so the card can of course be longer than 170mm.
