Evening all :).

I'm just wondering if I could get some help/advice on sorting my cooling out in my system. I have the following:

4 - Noctua NF-S12B REDUX PWM 1200RPM 120mm Quiet Case Fans

NZXT Kraken X52 AIO Water Cooling Unit - 240mm - stock fans

They are cooling a i7 7700k @ stock for the moment in a Enthoo Evolv atx.

Currently got the Kraken in the front then the 4 noctua fans on the roof as exhausts.

Have I got it set up right? Temps are in the 40c just in windows, I can't test games until my rx480 arrives.

Thanks for any help.
 
Hi would you connect all the fans to the fan headers on the cable which comes with the Kraken? Or would you use the hub which comes with the case? I didn't get the X62 because it wasnt available at the time. I plan to redo the build tomorrow.

Thanks once again
 
Hi...

I have swapped my fans around now :) I have 3 Noctua NF-S12B as intakes at the front of my case then I have the Kraken in to roof with 2 fans pushing air out through the rad, the last Noctua fan is an exhaust. So far the temps have been 29-33c idle and 50c load which is loads better! Even when I overclock my i7700k to 5GHz I'm only hitting 58-60c load thats with the Kraken on silent mode!
