Pretty funny video on using extra fans to improve case airflow

Wait... but I have three intake on the bottom, three intake on the side, three exhaust in the top (rad) and one exhaust in the back (140MM all others 120MM) Does that mean I'm good?

I really think the moral of this story is to have your CPU fan pointing at an exhaust

Does that mean I'm good?

If it isn't getting toasty in there, then it should be OK.

So who wants to convert that data into a post?

So was that notebookLM or maybe Notebook in copilot?

I tend to trust Google more since they have a AI genius that even Elon Musk wanted to take out.

Elon Musk, Sam Altman and the world's billionaires are terrified of the Google AI genius behind a 25-year-old computer game, because they think he might actually end up controlling god

Thank you for the summary. Nice to see I didn't screw everything up on fans all these years - I've always kinda done the Goldilocks thing.

Wonder how this compares to the positive case pressure crowd, since it seems to pretty much say don't do that.

 

[Grimlakin]

If you can do FTB or BTT then positive pressure CAN work for you. Positive pressure is a designed path with pressure pushing the air out. But you NEED a path. A fully vented case will be inefficient.

The main thing about positive pressure, as far as I know, is the dust problem. Positive pressure tends to keep dust and crap out of the cracks and ports. To an extent.
