Need advices about cooling

razerg · Apr 7, 2014

These two things are mostly obvious which one is better, i just need advices (if you have some) for how can I make this to work without breaking something up.
First I thought this would be good to do, the warm air usually goes up and it comes into my PSU which is bad, so if I could make something like a small space to separate cooling for PSU and make it to grab its own fresh air. (picture in paint

blue arrows are cool air, red arrows are hot air).
Second, I saw this on some cases already installed when bought so this seems like a good solution, if I could make like a funnel on the case panel to make CPU fan inhale only the cool air instead of warm air that coming from the GPU (picture

).
I know it's good to have my side panel taken off but i like it more on. Thanks for any help.

The time and effort involved, you might be better off getting a new case where the PSU sits on the bottom, to achieve what you are looking for.

That would be a good solution if i had any money.

interesting. so, you want to section off the air the psu intakes? that should be ok, but will require you to cut part of your case and use something to act as a kind of wall. it seems a bit complicated, so i would suggest you just put an intake fan blowing air as close to the psu as it can (idk what your case has as far as space for fans).

also, you dont mean 12mm fan, i think you mean 120mm

I meant 12cm

But yes it's too small space size for a fan so it would be the best to put it like this, just to make holes on the top.

well, maybe you could put some cardboard and make a makeshift wall to redirect the intake fan towards the psu, but then you dont have an intake for the rest of the system, which isnt a big deal, but im not sure if you will benifit from the fan going into the psu.

Danbuscus25 :

I don't think there's much of a difference between a fan blowing into the PSU and a cool air without fan, like you said i could put some cardboard but there is a risk of it getting on fire, so aluminum would be good. What do you think about the second picture?

Danbuscus25 · Apr 8, 2014

umm im not sure how you could go about doing that... what are the temps you are getting inside the case?

Danbuscus25 :

Never really measured it inside the case but it goes crazy for the CPU temp over the summer. GPU temp meter isn't even working any more. :/

well, just make sure you have a good cpu cooler and you should be fine. also check the thermal paste.

i have the stock amd cooler which isnt the best choice, but i have no money to buy a better one like thermaltake typhoon, this is why im doing these things
