    Are the lian li al120 v2 worth it?

    So I’ve been looking through numerous fans and info related to them. I am considering getting the Lian Li Al120 v2 fans, prob one bank of 3 for the controller, then initially another 3 more. That’ll then give 3 bottom and 3 top of the case as a push pull, and when I put WC in also be able to...

    New Rotated/Vertical Airflow Case

    I'm always on the prowl for smart case designs that allow really good airflow to the GPU and my searches today bore fruit! "Geometric Future" is a new company - not sure if they are Chinese or Korean. Their Facebook page was only created at the end of last month. They have two case designs...

    Corsair 4000D Airflow, 280mm AIO and low profile memory?

    I would like to use the Corsair 4000D Airflow with a Corsair H115i. However on the video below (5:28) Leo says that this combination would then require low profile memory such as Corsair LPX memory to leave enough room at the top for the H115i. I don't really want low profile memory. I'd prefer...

    Best case airflow for EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 24GB FTW3 ULTRA GAMING

    Hi guys, I've just got the EVGA 3090 and it's producing a ton of heat compared to my 1080ti. This was to be expected but I wanted to check that I have my case airflow correctly setup. My previous 1080ti was a founders edition with a fan blower design so my case setup did fine, but with this...

    Performance relevance of old high-performance cases

    I have been a happy owner of a Fractal Design Arc Midi (R1) since 2013 and it was the best bang for performance and water cooling options case to have 8 years ago. I've updated the fans with 6 Akasa Viper 140mm fans so the airflow of the case is really strong with the fans ramping up based on...

    Budget AIRFLOW case advice.

    I am looking for a case with plenty of airflow as I do not want to run into any overheating problems with my first build. This step is crucial for me to get the best airflow possible. I am going for the Ryzen 5 3600 cpu with an RTX most likely. I'm most likely going with an x570 motherboard...

    Anecdotal Evidence Related to Fan+Filter Spacing

    TL;DR Putting space between intake fans and their dust filters seems to substantially improve airflow and combined with them being closer to components seems to improve temperatures too. My case is a Silverstone Primera 02 (SST-PM02B) which I love despite it receiving a largely negative review...

    Case airflow

    Hi all, I'm subscribed to the usual suspects on YouTube and they all still advocate the fans at the front bringing air into the case and fans at the back blowing the "hot air" out. It just doesn't sit well with me and science basically. Some great videos explaining why as well but I've...

    Kolink Stronghold ''2'' Lian-li Dynamic 011

    The origional idea upon building the PC was to go with something cheap, functional and with at least some bling ability in the form of tempered glass. I really do not like the traditional ''Gamer'' case and style. I love something simple , elegant and clean without the unessary frills... not...

    CPU Cooler and Top Exhaust Fan Airflow Question

    Hello everyone, I had a quick question and wondered if anyone more experienced than I could help. I was planning on building my new PC with an air cooled Corsair 780t case. My plan for cooling was to have three Noctua NF-S12A 120mm fans at the front and one same fan at the bottom for intake...

    Hi, I've been using the Evolv ATX TG for some time and love its aesthetic qualities. However, the airflow is poor, especially when mounting hardware in the top sliding bracket. I currently have an NH-D15S but could move to a water cooling solution. Should I move from my current case to an...
