calling Phanteks Enthoo Primo watercooling users please!

hi, could you please post your radiator sizes, placement and fan direction in your Phanteks Enthoo Primo case! at the moment i have 1x480mm in the bottom in a push/pull configuration blowing air in to the case and 1x360mm in the top in push/pull configuration also blowing in to the case. with only one 140mm blowing hot air out im finding my system getting quite warm trying to find out if i would be better having the top rad blowing out of the case instead of in.
i know i could check myself but its a big job and im lazy

also interested in how people have theirs setup!

Can you at least stretch your efforts to read this thread?!

romper76 · 26 Sep 2014 at 22:08

i have read though this thread! everyone seems to do it differently.

It's worth noting that the flow at the bottom of the case is quite restrictive - quite a few Primo owners have raised their case off the floor either on blocks or Lloyd's castor base.

Are your overall system temps quite high, or is it the components on the loop on the bottom rad that are warm?

You can see mine in my project log, its in my signature.

The beauty of this case is it has so many different options to suit everyone, go with a loop you want not what someone else has done

my cpu and gpu temps are ok the problem is how hot it is inside of the case! i have seen someone on here has installed 2x80mm fans in the back to remove the hot air im going to try the same.

I´m assembling my waterloops now, I will be running separate loops...
CPU = 1x360 Top / push+pull (exhaust)
GPUs = 1x240 Front / push (intake) + 1x360 bottom / push (exhaust) + 1x120 back / push (exhaust)
