  1. I have an o11 vision and i want to do all fans exhaust because of the looks. Is bad. I know its not optimal but i will be gaming and nothing more. I have a ryzen 5 7600x and a rx 7800xt

  2. Very quick but very informative video, a lot of information condensed under just one minute, well done

  3. Just run the build on top of the motherboard box and chuck the case. Use the savings to download more ram and buy Fortnite skins. Better skin = better fps!

  4. If I want to install fan bottom of the box, to help improve the temperature chart, what would be your thing?

  5. On intake vs exhaust

    If i have 2 Fans on my cpu exhausting Out of the case. An exhaust right behind the cpu cooler to exhaust. Do cpu fans count as exhaust? Im planning to have 3 fans as intake at the bottom and 2 Fans as exhaust on the top of my Case. Does this ratio Work?

  6. yeah fans are dumb! in the sense some shouldn’t blow the way they do cause its a sticker on the side u see.

  7. I realized that my PC which I bought 4 years ago from a pc builder, has only 3 exhaust fans and nothing else. Hab bad is this really?? I’ve been running like this all those years lol but I’m upgrading to a much better gpu und CPU now…

  8. I always have mine max speed. Whats the point of buying a 3000rpm fan if you gonna run it at 400 rpm. Smh

  9. The only worse thing is setting up perfectly but not being able to configure your fans to shut off well. Then you fire up your game and your fans constantly turn on and off no matter how you configure them…

  10. actually negative airflow is generally better for temps but can pull dust in from any opening in your pc case

  11. If your pc has 6 same fans,3 intake and 3 ehaust…without changing the fancurve,would it be ok to stay like that?
    Also how tf do u even change fan curves??

  12. Though if you don’t have all the fan spots filled or only have a few fans, it’s the exhaust fans that make the biggest difference to temps. Get that hot air out of there and let the cool air come in the empty fan holes.

  13. I’m not sure how to set up air flow on my mini itx case. I have a spot to mount two fans on the top and one on the back. What is everyone’s suggestion?

  14. If your pc has 6 same fans,3 intake and 3 ehaust…without changing the fancurve,would it be ok to stay like that?
    Also how tf do u even change fan curves??

  15. That’s why I have the fans set to auto thru the bios so when it’s cool they hardly spin when it’s hot *jet engine noises*

  16. What case is this? I need a case that has good airflow that has fans on the front and fans on the side as well. I have an NZXT case and I don’t have a lot of fan space and my computer gets over clock a lot because I play games a lot with very high settings so my computer gets hot. Does anyone recommend a quality case that has quality airflow?

  17. thses so called experts are so wrong. all fans has to be blowing hot air out. that way your pcs temps will be lower. i have tested this so many times and always works better. you can try it yourself plus your pcs wont have much dust build up

  18. yeah but negative pressure where u have all intakes filtered is actually way wawy way ywe better. like grow room level cleanliness etc etc etc

  19. Depending on your case, negative air pressure is the best way to go. You get better temps overall, get that hot air taken out, and actually prevents the most dust entering (believe it or not, cause it’s negative air pressure).

  20. Lil bit late here, i got my brand new PC 2 weeks ago and fans have been running for 100% im sure cuz it’s so loud, except gpu ofc that i can setup from MSI afterburner, is there any straight guide how to set up other PC fans, english is my 2nd language and i can’t understand any videos im watching at YT for example fancontrol guides, they are just talking and showing examples about curves but i can’t understand, can’t find direct guide like "put them like this" help me pls =/
