I'm trying to build a mATX living room gaming PC.
As I understand it, the more (cool) air the open air coolers have available within the case, the better they work. Hence, those tight and packed mATX cases would theoretically do much better with a blower.
It would be nice if anyone had any experience with the particular case I'm looking at, but even generally, is the temperature difference noticeable (>5°C)?
Also, could custom case fans help the open air cooling significantly?
The case is Aerocool Dead Silence
PS: I'm partial to the "stock" blower card designs, so if the differences aren't huge, I'll probably run with it either way.
