Hi,
just installed my new Nepton 240 M closed-watercooling in my old Factial design R3 case.
My MOBO was to large so I had to put radiator inside (top) and fans outside (top) pulling (as CoolerMaster video on youtube did).
Is this really a good solution? I am not too impressed by temps around 30-35 celsius idle. I also installed a 140mm side-fan as extra intake, the speed of this makin almost 10-15 degrees different in temps by variating rpm, while radiator fans doesnt seems to do more that 3-5 degrees difference by variating rpm from idle (700 rpm) to 100 % (2200 rpm) - and some cases even seems like the temp goes up by amping cpu fans (rad-fans) =S ????
Does this has anything to do with negative pressure or something?
I also wonder about the efficiency of the pulling fans on top. They are suppose to drag hot case-air through the radiator by pulling. I'm not to confident that the pulling works through the metal mesh that compose the caseing. I imagine that the pullforce is weakend by having a disrupting heksagon-metalmesh in between the fans and the radiator on the other side. Does mye suspicion apply or is it wrong? Should I rather turn the fans into push?
Plz, give your taughts about this, I cant seem to find the answer to this spesific worry.
My gig:
MOBO: Asus P8P67
Fractial Design Black Pearl R3 (1 exaust 120mm; 2 intake 120mm (front); 1 intake 140mm (side); 2 radiatorfans 120mm outside case (fans-casemesh-radiator)). Watercooled (Nepton 240 M)
CPU: Intel 2500
GPU: MSI GTX 1060
RAM: 3x4gb Vengence = 12 Gb.
Also, what temp should I expect with this gig idle? and,
What should be my main concern about controlling fans with taughts to pressure?
Thanks alot!
