Ditch the side fan. Generally they don;t help at all and sometimes hurt.

You want front intake. Top/rear exhaust.

How hot does your 780 get?

nathwillo1 · Apr 22, 2014

well it normally gets around 70-75 on bf4 maxed settings , i recently put in the fan at the bottom of the case next to psu intaking the air?

Those temps are perfectly fine for it. Anything under 85c is fine.

That bottom fan would probably be better as a top exhaust. Believe it or not, getting the hot air out is more important than bringing more air in.

so do i ditch the side fan then put the bottom one were? because there are no more places for it to go apart from the side panel that isnt needed?

Side panel fans usually do no good. What case do you have? It should have a spot for a fan ontop. This fan would be an exhaust.

nathwillo1 :

I wouldn't ditch the side fan, just make it intake so that it blows air on your GPU (helps in my case at least).

In my case it actually made my GPU temps worse. Often times it traps hot air from escaping by messing up the flow of air from the front to the back of the case.

OP, your GPU temps are perfectly normal.

i have a coolermaster k380

Take the bottom intake fan and install it in the top as an exhaust.

nathwillo1 · Apr 22, 2014

there are no threads at the top though for the fan tobe screwed in?

tiny voices · Apr 22, 2014

I guess that's a poor design on Coolermaster's part.

I would leave it as a bottom intake. Your PSU is installed correctly with the fan at the bottom right?

nathwillo1 · Apr 22, 2014

i think you just screw the skrews through the top though to make your own thredding?

when im on the internet my gpu temp us around 30-40? is that to much

tiny voices · Apr 22, 2014

Nope that's VERY cool for idle GPU temps. No problems at all.

nathwillo1 · Apr 22, 2014

so should i just stick with the 4 fans i have in now if thats no problem?

tiny voices · Apr 22, 2014

Yeah, you have no heat problems, but either ditch that side fan completely or make it an intake. It is wrong as an exhaust.

nathwillo1 · Apr 22, 2014

thanks for the help mate

tiny voices · Apr 22, 2014

No problem. Always glad to help!
