Hey All,
Looking for advice from anyone with really good air cooling knowledge.
Just bought a NZXT Switch 810 MAtte Black finish case to upgrade from my Zalman Z11 Plus.
I wanted to add more fans, have more space, add a 2nd GPU and try my hand at a proper Watercocling loop in the near future so went with this case as it ticked all the boxes.
To start with, my CPU (AMD FX8350) with CM 212 EVO on idle is around 35 Deg Cel and goes to 55deg Cel whilst playing games (BF3, FC3, etc). Thats in the current case with ambient temps over here in Ireland at around 20deg C.
My Asus GTX 660ti is idling at 33deg C and hitting 72deg C whilst playing games.
I know these are fine and within parameters, but I want to OC my CPU to at least 4.6GHz and I want to tweak my GPU as well.
That brings me to the 810 case purchase. I will eventually try a WC CPU loop and add a 2nd 660ti but not till after Xmas.
SO I want to keep my CM 212 EVO in place for now but want to cool things down in my new case.
Therefore, I am looking for powerful (yet Quiet Fans) - High CFM, if possible?
Want to configure the new case as follows:-
1. - 3 * 120mm Fans on the TOP for Exhaust
2. - 2 * 140mm Fans at front for Intake
3. - 1 * 140mm at bottom for Intake
4. - 1 * 140 mm at back for exhaust
5. - Want to replace the 2 120mm Fans on CM 212 EVO with something more powerful than stock.
6. - Will take out bottom HDD Bay (wont be used) and possibly add another Fan to the other detachable HDD bay ?
7. Gonna add 2 Fan Controllers (NZXT Sentry Mesh) to control all fans including the 2 attached to the CM EVO 212 CPU Cooler
I am happy enough with this config, but want to get good air pressure to decrease current temps and give me space to OC comfortably.
I have looked at the Noctuas but all comments I read always refer to how quiet they are..I would like quiet but want high CFM. Using the fan controllers should allow me to set them to full when playing games and reduce when doing less streful activites.
Thanks in advance for all your suggestions in relation to Fans
