Hey guys, me again . I've watched a fiew videos and read some articles but wanted some feedback from you guys. I just got a new case (corsair carbide 400c) and had some questions about my AIO and fan air flow (exhaust vs intake).
Currently I have my Corsair H80i v2 mounted in the rear of my case. It's currently setup in a push configuration (both fans) I have 2 140mm fans in the front of the case pulling in fresh air and it's directed towards the rear fans and RAD.
The paperwork for the cooler recommends pulling in fresh air and running it through the RAD which makes sense but then the warm air would be dumped into the case. So if I do change the fan orientation should I set the front fans to exhaust? I feel that if I do that temps might get a bit warm inside
I was going to play around with some of the configs that I can run but it's such a pain in the *** to get my cooler mounted with both of the fans .
My temps are fine so I probably don't have to change anything just looking for your thoughts and being efficient.
Ambient: 22-25c
Full load: Prime95 Blend Test 65-75c
Idol: 30-40c
Thanks
Alex
