Swimmer Posted January 26, 2006 CID Share Posted January 26, 2006 not bad... now get a case fan in the back of the case to exhaust all the hot air and you should be in great shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlewis23 Posted January 26, 2006 CID Share Posted January 26, 2006 x_6985381 just a little heads up, you sould not put your motherboard on your carpet, like that. otherwise nice job, but like Swimmer said, if you get a case fan for the back it will make a bigger difference then that little fan.

Swimmer Posted January 26, 2006 CID Share Posted January 26, 2006 Zap... good point dlewis23! The little fan does make sense.. There have been heat sinks that have both a vertical cooler and horizontal fan.. The back fan would just help get the hot air from that power supply, cpu, and the graphics out of the case so that you are not pushing hot air around trying to cool everything.

dlewis23 Posted January 26, 2006 CID Share Posted January 26, 2006 yea, he is just creating hot pockets, there is no air flowing from the front to the back, to move the air, he is just reusing his hot air to cool something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x_6985381 Posted January 26, 2006 Author CID Share Posted January 26, 2006 i'm getting great air flow from the power supply the vents in the back of the power supply housing collects the heat and pushes the heat out, but im probley going to be buyin a case fan, but a 1.66 GHz AMD Athlon doesnt really run all that hot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The power supply fan is designed to get the heat out of the power supply not your case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
