I have this pc case:
https://www.akyga.com/products/393-midi-tower-atx-case-ak995bk.html
Even the manufacturer recommends the side fan to be intake according to its pdf.:
Wherever i read and tests i see, i guess it presumes a tower in every case (and also not blower style fan) and that it is not laying on it's side.
Almost every test i see it presumes a front in and rear out fan. Even if it does not have a front intake fan, the side fan almost always recommended to be intake fan to blow air onto the gpu.
I think everything worse differently in my case, because there is no intake fan,
When i had the side fan to be intake i had 5°C higher temperatures and louder higher RPM running gpu fans.
TLDR: So having no air intake fan shouldn't be a problem, as with both being exhaust fans, the hot air is pulled out of the fan. Also it will find the little crevices where it will draw in, as almost no pc cases are being fully airtight.
What are your thoughts?
