Hello everyone,
I am writing too you today because I am at my witts end. I have spent 3 days of my spare time trying to learn and understand how to properly cool my new system. I was hoping you guys could help out! The goal of the build is to create a fast gaming, video editing rig, well remaining quiet and cool. My goal is to have the rig stay around high 50s during load if possible well remaining quiet. That will let me relax, write, surf without distraction. Ive heard the pumps can be noisey but I think it should be ok with after market fans unless the sp 12s are indeed good. I have seen people use fan controllers with the sp 12s and drop them down to half RPMs and them be relaitlvely quiet. I have zero interest in over clocking but I thought this would be the best section for this thread given the cooling aspects of overclocking.
Intel 4790 3.6GHz
MSI 5 Gaming Motherboard
XFX 380 4GB OC
G.Skillz 1866hz 16GB RAM
2 SSD Samsung 850 EVOs (120 & 250)
EVGA 1000 GQ PSU
Define S Case
I was exploring using the h105 or h110i. I am relatively new to setting up fan controllers and adjusting fan speeds. My friend and I are going to build it. I believe the closed loops one I mentioned come with the Corsair SP12s (x2). I have heard mixed reviews but am open to using those fans if they are highly regarded around here. I was also exploring the idea of using some noctua fans but I am not sure what the best type of fans are for each area of the case.
I was sort of wanting to copy hardware canucks video on define s: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CaU72f0hMVo . Where it has the push and pull setup. I would consider using the bitfenix ones used but I am not looking to have any LED lightning to reduce on electrical costs. I Just want to look in on the case during the day.
If you are able to help please I would be most appreicated. I wanted to follow the 2 fans at front, 1 at bottom, and 1 140mm exhaust at the rear. I am not sure if I need the corsair link or if there another solid program thats some what easy. I like simple control with a nice interface.
Thanks so much,
