Good enough cooling?

SSGGoku · Jun 23, 2017

I have a Cooler Master N200 case and want to know whether cooling is sufficient in this micro atx case.

cpu: i7 7700k
gpu: EVGA 1080 superclocked gaming acx 3.0
cpu cooler: cryorig H5 universal

The build will have 2 120mm intakes at the front, 1 120mm exhausts for top and rear, and a 120mm side intake (5 fans total)

As the side fan is intake, will this blow directly onto my GPU? And should I go blower or open air card with the side intake? Is the cpu cooler enough for the i7 no OC?

The fans used will be Corsair High Performance AF120

Cooling looks good the h5 is a very nice cooler

I would say your case is decent for air flow. I believe u will have no trouble with 5 fans installed. H5 is great cooler that will let you do some mid renge overclocking for sure.
H5 universal is 160mm H so you wont be able to use extra side panel fan, but it shouldn't be needed.

Sounds good, excellent fans.
As for the side panel, have it as an intake to blow cool air over the GPU, the heat will be exhausted out the back of the case. Go for an open air GPU as they tend to be better at cooling than blower types.

Makentox :

would it be better to keep the H5 cooler and have no side fan for GPU and have only front fan blowing on GPU or to change cooler to something below 140mm (such as the Noctua NH-U9S) and keep the side intake?

SSGGoku :

I would personally keep H5 and have no side fan. 2 for intake and 2 exhaust will be enough.
