In either orientation, you can't avoid the 3080 FTW3 sucking in some of its own exhaust. For cases with lots of optional fan locations like that one, the answer to the frequently asked question has never been to fill them all - except for looks, which is subjective.Ĭlick to expand.It wouldn't change much of anything. There is no best there is always bias towards one or the other. Top exhaust.ģ)You should know by now - open up the side and close the front.
500D AIRFLOW INSTALL
but the case isn't really set up to do that, so you'd have to DIY something to close it off, otherwise some of the side intake air could leak out the front.ģ)Take #1 and swap the AIO/CLC to front intake, the case fans to top exhaust, and instead of a rear filter, install a rear exhaust fan.ġ)Front intake. Ģ)Same as above, except you do side intake and close off the front panel. Both halves of the cooler now have cool intake. Those are really for expanding custom loop options.įor example, someone could use the side for installing a distro plate or pump+res combo, and have smooth intake through the front, or vice versa, if they wanted to.ġ)Intake through the front with case fans. It may look good depending on who you ask, but in terms of cooling efficiency, it creates unnecessary turbulence the front and side will T-bone. If you are mostly air cooling, there is no real cooling benefit to filling both side and front panels. Once I get that figured out, it's just picking the cooler and it's all done. What would be the best set up for this case? I intend to have it near a AC, so using those side fans as intake may actually help as well.Įither way, please give me some advice with this. However, I've seen some posts saying not to use the side fans, I could use it for GPU AIO exhaust (seriously considering it). The set up I'd like to do is 6 front intake, AIO behind the front panel, 3 fans at the top and one radiator.
500D AIRFLOW HOW TO
Outside of going with either one of three AIOs (Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360, Corsair H150i Elite Capellix, or Cooler Master MasterLiquid M元60 R) or picking up a Noctua NH-D15, I am unsure how to configure the fans in this case. My question now is, what fan set up should I go with on this? My components are going to be a i7-12700F (with turbo boost enabled), Asus ROG Strix B660-A, Silicon Power A60 1 TB NVME, Crucial MX500 4TB, G.Skill Trident Z RGB 36000 CL182 x 16, EVGA 12GB, and filling the case with Arctic P12 PST A-RGB 120mm fans (if I go Cooler Master AIO, will use Sickle Flow fans instead). I'm down to the final part of my build, and decided to go with a Corsair 5000D Airflow case, the other option was Phanteks P500A but decided against it.
