This is the ideal depiction of airflow.

If not, why not and show your work.

Literally who cares
>>
>>55533494
no air for PSU. also, no GPU. no example of side intake
>>
>>55533494
I don't need to show my work but there's no positive pressure inside the case in this depiction. Ideally you want top and front fans intake, rear exhaust.
>>
>>55533522
also, forced into 120mm fans, loud AF. i use aircooling with 4- 200mm fans. shit real quiet
>>
hint: radiators exhaust isn't cool
>>
>>55533533
What is static pressure?
>>
>>55533526
Top fans intake?

You are asking for a one way ticket to dust city, my friend.
>>
>he doesn't have a turbocharged airflow system

your back fans literally power a turbine which sucks in extra into the case, making your case cooler than zerocool.
>>
>>55533545
well, i also have 2x 140 on my heatsink, plus 120 on the drivecage. and another 140 on rear exhaust. you move enough air, static pressure is not really a concern
>>
>>55533555
Get filters nerd
>>
>>55533555
FUCKING CHECKED

also not really. I have a 750D. Got a nice filter up top. After 8 months(my cleaning cycles), it only takes about 30 seconds to dust my PC completely. Not including filter cleaning time. 5~ minutes
>>
>>55533555
not to mention... heat rises...
>>
>>55533574
literally go kill yourself

so we have started the fire....

your just jelly of my HAF

>>55533560
It's a concern for restrictive scenarios like dust filters and fan grills. [spoiler]That's every scenario.[/spoiler]
>>55533567
It's like fine dust doesn't exist and won't get sucked in by fans.
>>
>>55533616
fan grilles and filters are not that restrictive. static pressure is really only a thing for rads and heatsinks
>>
>>55533556
20/20
>>
>>55533567
So your answer to a cooler system is by putting a thick piece of fiber mesh blocking the fans from pulling air into the machine?
>>
>>55533556
8/10 for actually getting me to think about this. The exhaust wind has nowhere near enough strength to power a turbine that can draw a significant amount of air.

This is how I have things set up in my R5. 120mm fans aren't louder than any other size fan if you get good ones. My HDD is by far the loudest thing in my system.
>>
>>55533494
Why the fuck would you want to dump 50C air into the case from the start? Without a LOT of other intake air from fresh, ambient source you're setting your PC up to become a self heating loop

Unless Im mistaken and radiators dont heat soak to some degrees lower than the CPU, but Im not mistaken so shut up.
>>
>>55533781

I'm gonna need arrows depicting intake and exhuast, my friend. Also gonna need some wavey lines to depict the flow of pressure.

Literally, what?
Im gonna need a diagram.

>>55533890
WRONG!
>>
>>55533494
This is exactly my setup, and my GPU is running about 10C hotter than it should be. Radiator should run exhaust whenever possible.
>>
>>55533933
But jizz is the best thermal interface material.
>>
>>
>>55533980
Seeing all the dust that settles on the top of my case tells me that the top of the case should never be used for any sort of air exchange.
>>
>>55533853
You, read
>>55533943

Putting water cooler radiator in the front intake path is the dumbest fucking thing possible.
>>
>>55533943
If radiator is to run exhuast, where do you mount it?
>>
>>55534044
Either top of the case or bottom of the case. Get a case with double/triple top exhausts or one of those fancy isolated PSU, bottom intake cases otherwise you're doing it wrong.

Back in the day people would run their full custom loops outside the case. Now we live in the era of every /v/tard with $120 to spend grabbing shitty AIOs
>>
seriously, if the purpose of a fan is to move air, then why have an intake at all? Why not just run all fans to exhaust?
>>
>>55534098
the air has to be rammed into the system for increased effectiveness, this is why there's a front fan.
>>
>>55534098
Most cheapo prebuilts are configured that way. Guess how much dust they collect?

here's mine

how'd i do
>>
>>55536110
The top exhaust pulls air that could have gone through the second fin stack. Do a push-pull on one of the drive cages or something.
