Ok I have a small problem with my Cpu temps. Yesterday I added two 80mm 50c.f.m. Sunon fans and a 120mm 131c.f.m. YS-Tech fan to the bottom of my case in a wooden box. The Ys-Tech pulls the air in to the box and the two Sunon fans push the air in to the case. Well my case temps did go down but my Cpu temp went up 4C it`s now running at 35C instead of 31C. What did I do wrong?

Airflow inside the case has changed: somehow you have created a dead spot near the cpu fan so it is recycling the hot air.

Try turning off one of the fans in the box, closest to the cpu if possible.

Or adding an exhaust near the cpu.

Airflow patterns are WEIRD and can be a lot of trial and error!

Thanks for the input. I added a slot fan right under the H.S.F. and I lowered the Cpu temp down to 28C-29C @ full load and the case temp down to 21C-22C.

So were back to normal right? :D

Thats why you want everything equal usually including the brand as the dead spots of the fan move differently and thus dead spots in your case will change.

Gotta be the first time I've seen someone happy to admit that!:burn:
