Hi,
I've had my Corsair Hydro H100i for 2 days now, and its a monster, hehe. But it seems like that the ambient temp has risen pretty much.. The CPU temperature is awesome though, 30C idle and 45C load with 2x radiator fans at 50-60%.
But it still wakes a few thoughts.. E.x when I put my hand on the side panel, front, the side glass etc, its freaking hot in there.. Before liquid cooling, when I touched the chassi, it used to be cold, colder than my hand..
Is the airflow fked up, or is this normal on H2O? I used to have one exhaust fan on the top fins along with one intake front, bottom and 2x 80mm on each side panel. And one exhaust on the rear. But now, the radiator is on the top fins, along with 2 fans outside the chassi, as intake, so the radiator get's fresh, cool air on it. So, now I have only one exhaust fan, located on the rear.
And heat rises ofc, and intake on the bottom, I dont know, my common sense tells me that the airflow is messed up in there..
Any thoughts or advices?
