Hi,

Just wanted your thoughts on the below diagram really.

The case is a Lian Li A05b, and is part of my G505B project so will need to think up a new way to cool it, i was thinking along the lines of having 2 x 120mm fans set into the bottom sending cool air straight through the cpu cooler, over the motherboard/ram/nb/sb and onto the back of the graphics card.

Then having 2/3 x 120mm fans set into the roof with one at the rear of the case all drawing warm air out.

What are your thoughts? and will it work?

Rearmost bottom fan could be positinoed to work as intake for CPU cooler and that back fan as exhaust for it, there just isn't any sense in baking graphics cards with CPU's heat.

With two top exhausts any back panel grills would probably act as intake because of negative pressure.
