Moved case - temps!

dmsims · 4 Feb 2016 at 18:48

Case now an NZXT S340

comes with 2 fans 1 at top and 1 rear

I have moved the top fan to the front (so it is pulling air in) and added a Nexus to the front

All fans are spinning

Any suggestions ?

Is the system fan 1 the other cpu fan as its running 300rpm slower, a dual fan cpu cooler fan speeds should be matched.

What speed is the case fans running at ?

No, system Fan1 is the Nexus at the front

I cannot get the case fan speeds as they are plugged straight to the PSU

Has the case got a door ? if so open the door and see what temps you get and report back .

Make sure all dust filters are clean and cpu is correctly seated, check thermal paste.

No door but I took the windowed panel off (and took off the overclock)

The NZXT case is brand new and I moved the MB without removing the heatsink
CPU Idle temp before was 32C

I would move the nzxt fan back to the top position so both rear fans exhaust and add another nexus fan to the front this mite bring more airflow to he case.

Thanks for that - it's better

I have ordered 3 Thermalright PWM fans and I am considering the GRID+ V2 controller - anyone have one ?

Ok so today I installed a couple (only fit that many) 140mm TY-141's and a Grid+ V2

Quieter and full load GPU has gone from 85 to 75
