Case cooling sanity check

[adrichardson81]

Hi everyone

Could I get a sanity check on my cooling setup? TLDR - it's currently set up for neutral pressure, but would I better with positive pressure?

I'm running a 5900x and 3080ti in a Jonsbo U5. Cooling is an Arctic Liquid Freezer ii 240mm with Noctua NF-A12x15 fans. Case fans are Noctua NF-S12A ULN to keep the noise down. I'm using the 3 bottom fans as intakes and the top fans as exhausts. There's also about a 1" gap the length of the pci slots, as the screw cover doesn't fit with my gpu installed.



Performance is perfectly acceptable, but I was wondering if my fan placement is optimal. The GPU gets plenty of fool air, but would I better switching the back exhaust fan to an intake to give the GPU more cool air?

Thanks!

That’s fine as it is, if you want to check how well positive pressure works, slow the exhausts down or speed the intakes up.

Thanks! No real difference playing with fan speeds so I'll leave it as is. Saying that, it's pretty cold out so I might have another try in the summer.
