Question Running a PC with only 1 exhaust fan ?

[crunchycone]

Is it okay to use my PC with only 1 exhaust fan ?

For context, my PC is a tower with 3 intake and 4 exhaust. I have an AIO that is included on the exhaust (top mount). It's a RoG Ryujin II 360 that has recently stopped cooling my CPU, reported it to Asus and wants me to send the unit back. It'll take at least 3 weeks to a month for a replacement so Im using a cheap air cooler.

Is it okay to keep using my PC with only 1 exhaust? (Will only use it until I get my AIO back) Only the back fan and no top exhaust fans because I dont have spare fans.

The case is Cooler Master Masterbox MB520
CPU: Ryzen 9 5900x
GPU: ROG Strix RTX 3080
Mostly gaming all the time.

Any input is appreciated

As long as nothing overheats, only you can know that.

It's not like you'll be using only a single exhaust fan ( as you wrote in the title).

3 intake fans and 1 exhaust fan is plenty.
Main problem will be with insufficient cheap air cooler.

What model air cooler will you be using exactly?
