Hi, I just got a antec eleven hundred case for my new pc it comes with a 200mm fan in the top and a 120 mm fan in the back. I need some help with creating better airflow in my pc and what I should you to do this. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks
I have the Eleven hundred as well. I started out with 2 120 fans at the front as intakes and the rear 120 as exhaust. The top fan I have as exhaust as well. My 2500k (air cooled) is overclocked to 4.2 GHz and never gets above 48 degrees for me. Since heat rises this was an easy decision for me.
I had left the window fan slots empty until I added a second GTX 570 in SLI. These were running a little warm and when I added 2 120 fans (intake) in the side window and this really dropped the graphics cards' temps since the the fans blow directly on them.
I'm very happy with the setup now.
