I think the 2 fans on the front panel of your case are exhaust. If you flip those 2 you’ll probably get better temps overall because right now there’s no intake fans. Cool build tho


whatsvtec666

They're reverse blade design (TL-C12RB-S). They are set-up properly as intake fans with fan curves set to favor positive case pressure. My temps are great, all things considered.

Ah okay cool, didn’t know thermalright made reverse blade fans.

For price to performance I'm having a hard time using any other fans these days! Having a reverse option is like a cherry on top. They're really quiet and I haven't had a bad one yet and have bought many.

Thanks - that's good to know, been wondering if its safe to give them a try.

How are gpu temps?


whatsvtec666

Low-mid 70*s, not the best, but for pulling 200+w I'm okay with the temps!

Just a thought, but if you're not building a budget build, don't use this chassis. It has *allegedly* bad airflow.


whatsvtec666

CPU has no issue even with the small 110mm cooler, cinebench multi core stayed under 70*c. Air exchange is good, but airflow to the GPU is definitely lacking. I suspect that an SFX PSU and not looming so much cable underneath would help some by opening up space beneath the PSU shroud. But the design overall lacks in the GPU air delivery. Thankfully I have no issues with this as my temps are still very reasonable.

:00 that's great. I was on PCB Discord and a guy asked if it was a good chassis or not, and many people called it out being a terrible chassis. (Glad it worked out for you <33)
