Hi, I've got slight issue with cooling.

run PCS+ 390 in Nanoxia Deep Silence 4 and I noticed the side panel gets really hot while gaming as well as GPU temp rising to around 85+ degrees.

When I take off the side panel the max temps I see are around 75 which I'm ok with.

I run the stock Nanoxia fans - 1 in front, 1 at exhaust. they seem to be rated at 1300rpm, but I can only seem to run them at 1000rpm max.

I attach photo, the red rectangle area between GPU and PSU gets really hot. I need the fan airflow to reach further. I can barely feel anything 10cm away from the front fan.

so any advice on this? If no other option I'm looking for a 120mm replacement fan that could deliver better airflow.

thanks
 
Case not have a back section so them cables can be routed out of the direction of airflow?

I know its not the answer you want to hear, but that's pretty cramped and is always going to have hard to reach airflow.

Fan wise, I'm a bit out of sorts of recent, usually I used to recommend corsair AF and SP range but I have had one of each of these fans die on me recently in less than 9 months.

I'm now using these:

very happy with them and nice warranty, very well made, I realise they are not cheap.

Hope that helps.
 
Thanks.

The route for airflow is clear, no cables in the way even if it might not look that way.

How far from the fan can you feel the airflow? Are you running them at 2000rpm?
 
The air flow movement from them I personally consider pretty good considering RPM (Your mileage will vary) compared to other fans at similar rpm the seem more air movement

they run from 500 at desktop up to 1500 in CPU punish tests. That's all controlled by ASUS Fan Expert software.
They are designed as air flow, not rad fans, (Thou I use two on a rad pull push and seems to also work fine)

As my GPU and CPU are water cooled I don't think I really am a good example, but fan wise I do recommend them.

You need a reply from someone with a similar case I suppose really
