This is known information...you put an intake above a vid card exhaust...it'll just suck all that hot exhaust right back into case and / or thru raditor


So basically you are saying i should do the opposite of what memnoch_thedevil2003 told.
and make the pull/push to exhaust ?

like on this picture:


the red arrow in the middle to the left is that the CPU letting out air itself ?

no thats the vid card exhaust...aka room heater ^^



Properly Air Cooling Your Computer

1. You are going to need more CFM of Intake than you will for Exhaust. This is due to the fact that the CPU Cooler and Vid Card(s) Cooler(s) will be "starved for air" if you don't.

2. This is how I've set up my system and added "Cold Air Cooling" by way of Comp's location compared to the Windows A/C Unit.






Water cooling follows the same principle.....intakes at front and bottom...exhausts at rear and top

front and side 2x 200mm intake.

the H8 will have the push/pull exhaust.

Except from all the dust and bad cable management, yes. The fan on the side panel, I'm quite sure my friend had to remove that in order to get 2x graphics cards to fit. I think it were 2x HD6970.
If you want really nice airflow, look at the Antec 1200. I had that for 1 year, and with the NH-D14 I was able to get insane clocks on air.

It's not bad....just add the optional fans....

Cooling System Front: 230 x 30 mm red LED on/off fan x 1
Top: 200 x 30 mm fan x 2 (one optional)
Side: 200 x 30 mm fan x 1
Rear: 140 x 25 mm fan x 1
VGA Fan Duct: 120 x 25 mm or 120 x 38 mm fan x 1 (optional)
VGA Holder: 80 x 15 mm fan x 1 (optional)


when water cooling a CPU...there's not a lot of air flow around the CPU for the Caps and the VRM's....Plug ALL case fans and rad fans straight into power supply bro...that way they will run at 100% all the time :)

already had in mind to put in 4x 200 (change the 230 to 200 as well because of the LED light)
140mm in the rear ? my H80 is going to be there.

where do get these ?
VGA Fan Duct: 120 x 25 mm or 120 x 38 mm fan x 1 (optional)
VGA Holder: 80 x 15 mm fan x 1 (optional)

Front: Intake
Side: Intake
2x top: Exhaust.
Push/Pull H80 in rear: Thats the question.

the VGA fan holder comes with case as does the VGA fan duct...just the fans are optional....

120mm fan.... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835185144

80mm fan....http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835200047






Looks as if you can get a fan mounted as intake on bottom of case as well

yeah just get two of these for VGA duct and bottom of case....

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835185144

75cfm / 26db...I use same ones...get great temps ^^

also...on top...either put Rad up there or get another 2xx mm fan for that spot as well...optical drive does not HAVE to go in top slot :)

also if Power supply has fan on top...turn it over....so it's sucking air in from bottom of case instead of hot air from inside case :)
