So, I had a full sized corsair case for the last 7 years without issue.

At Xmas ingot a 1st Player Steampunk SP8 for a bit of bling and also to save a bit of space.

But when pushing my machine, the heat it now pumps out is unreal, the cpu and cpu are both sitting in the middle of normal, so I don't THINK that's the issue.

But wirh the same components, I'm having way more heat pumped into the room.

Am I right to assume the smaller case has caused this and a bigger case would resolve it once again? Or is it something like likey the cause?

Running a 3800x, liquid cooled and a 1080ti none liquid
 
How many fans are fitted?

How many are intake and exhaust?

Case looks very good for the money even though it comes with no fans.

Any chance of pics?
Ahhh, see my old case made me lazy so when I swapped over to this, I just stalled the radiator for the cpu and the gfx, I didn't actually install any case fans...... What do I need to do? And how should I position them lol


Edit yes I'm an idiot, had a bad couple of years with a major health issue, so just been bundling though.
Thanks mate

One last question, if I'm adding 6 more fans will o need a hub controller for so many or can I plug them all into my MSI mpg x570 gaming pro carbon

Sorry if this is a stupid question
