hey i got a hyper t4 and was using it but i had to get rid of the exhaust fan to put it in the case, the pc gets hot to the touch but the cpu temp is fine under 55c when gaming. I was getting worried so i bought a vortex plus because it was cheap, now my pc is cool to the touch but my cpu temps are getting to almost 70c. So i was wondering should i just keep the t4 in my case and have no exhaust fan just 1 intake fan, or should i leave the vortex plus and keep the exhaust fan?

Specs:
ga-78lmt-usb3
amd fx 8320
evga gtx 970
650w psu

Oh wow yeah you need to go rear exhaust, keep the top fan slot empty if the cooler blocks it, and add a intake fan on the side and or front.

This could have been resolved quickly if you have given that information earlier.

For future reference, intake fans work best in the front and bottom and exhaust fans work best in the rear and on top. Side fans can go either way depending on case, but usually work best as intake.

Sorry I wasn't clear, I put the cpu fan on the t4 it fits in my case, but the mount for the exhaust fan for the case is right above the cpu and the t4 barely fits so I had to the take the exhaust fan for the case out to fit in the t4, so I have to get a new case to get an exhaust fan? Because there are no other places I can mount the exhaust fan for the case
