Hey peoples,
I have a cheiftec case, the usual one that everyone has with the door and all. Well my question is if it would be greately benifical if I cut out a bit of the front of my case so that the air going through the radiator could get our smoothly(see image below). Right now my configureation pushed air from inside the case through the rad out the front gril of the case. I would pull air in but that would also bring in dust because my case is on the floor and our house is a very dusty place.
I have the proper tools to cut the front metal portion out but I don't have like any filter to put over the front so I believe sucking in through the rad isn practical at this time...
Currently I get like 32c idle and 36c under full load, and I want better temps than that. What do you think I could do?
