All fans are 120mm Thermalright TL-C12CW-S, same as the ones included in my PA 120SE cooler. Case is a 5000D Airflow.
OPTIONS:
I have 10 of those fans, but currently I'm only using 7 as my setup is Option A. The problem is the 7800x3D is getting a bit warm for my liking: while gaming stays around 75-80ºC but during heavy cpu tasks (decompressing files or Cinebench R20 all cores) is going up to 88-89ºC (no thermal throttling).
I know the 7800x3D can get hot, but I wonder if my current setup could be improved with Option B. This is, removing the front top fan (exhaust) to allow all the frontal intakes to reach the CPU.
Option C is probably a terrible idea, as opposite fans being so close to each other, could decrease their performance (basically what I think is happening with my current setup Option A, between the front top fan (exhaust) and the frontal top fan (intake) (what a wording mess)).
Option D could be another alternative adding fans from the side of the case as I already have them around, but I think then my PC will become a super dust magnet.
Thoughts? Any other option? Thanks!
