Coolermaster Stacker 830
Delta 120mm Focussed Flow Fan x4 for side panel
Delta 120mm Focussed Flow Fan for rear exhaust
PSU fan replaced with Delta 120mm Focussed Flow Fan
Three Coolermaster 4 in 1 device modules replaced with Delta 120mm Focussed Flow Fan.
Scythe Ninja Plus with four Delta 120mm Focussed Flow Fans.

Just noticed something, that case has a lot of air intakes, but only one rear fan?? :confused:
 
That shouldn't be too much of a problem, although it's best to have more exhausts in my experience.

You're crazy. I know what you;re going to say: "I don't care about the noise". We've heard it a hundred times before from people and they can never take it. Besides, you're not getting much improved performance over, say some Panaflo M1 fans. It's not worth putting up with the noise, trust me!;)
 
You'll soon get sick of it.

EDIT: For the most noise use old fans with dodgy bearings that are caked in dust for poor airflow.

If you must have new, use 80cf/m Delta screamers

More exhaust???????? Why would you do that? Less air = less that the heatsinks have to work with. What you really should be aiming for is either a balanced air bias or slightly positive.
 
You want more out than in (negative). It reduces dust and makes better use of other case ventilation.

The quantity of air in a case is the same no matter how many fans you have.
Also, air doesn't cool things just by being there. It conducts heat so you can remove it from the case.
Try building an airtight enclosure and filling it with fans and a heatsink, and it won't cool it down.

This guy knows where it's at. To be honest it shouldn't matter where you've got all those delta's, simply because there's so damn many of them.
 
If you have nmore intake than exhaust the fans will make even more noise as they have a harder time getting air in due to the pressure difference.

And why on earth would you want a loud system :confused:

If you want performance get watercooling, it will give you the same performance or better with a lot less noise.

Thats because we take people seriously, and the post was worded in a serious manner.
That and the fact that there are people who would seek to do what you suggested, this being a forum mostly full of mhz obsessed overclockers who already have tinnitus from previous exploits.

Ohh an btw, this here is whats used to represent humour in the absence of facial and voice perception. ;)

What have you been smoking dude - negative pressure in a case??????

Basic physics... Question: Does a vacuum conduct heat? Simple answer is: No. Air is made up of gasses, which in turn are made up of molecules etc... It is these molecules that conduct the heat away from the heatsinks (As you mentioned and then contradicted). Now can you explain why less air is better for cooling???? With all due respect, the quantity of air in a case varies by quite a bit, it is commonly known as a change in pressure, hence positive and negative pressure.

I'm sorry dude but your statement makes little or no sense. What relevance does building an airtight enclosure have to do with this? The basic rule is, either have a balanced bias in the case, i.e. air in = air out or, have a slightly positive bias. The more air a heatsink has to work with the better. The key is to have the air being constantly exchanged.

You need to go back to school tiger :rolleyes:

Oh and before you ask where I get my info from - I have a degree in electrical engineering of which a major component is physics - thanks for coming, I'll be here all week.

Oh, but I do agree with your observation on our 'friends' attempt at humor.
 
I have a loud system, i thought i wouldn't mind but now i do, i thought i would always use headphones but when i leave it on overnight it drives me insane.

i use to have 3 deltas 120mm, if you did this your neighbours would complain.
