Bought an Arctic F12 as a side case fan. When I install it so that it blows air INTO the GPU, the temperatures seriously sky rocket. in Sleeping Dogs I'd get about 58c and with it blowing IN I get about 110c!!!
I thought if the side case fan is blowing cold air into the GPU it should get cooler?!
This doesn't happen when i install the fan the other way around, so that its blowing outwards.

Strange indeed, when it is competing with the GPU for air it drops the GPU temp. Does not make sense!
