Hello
After upgrade i installed more FAN on my case , but i dont know what the best cooling method for case airflow , this images explain how i installed:

Front fan

Side case

Front case

Fan info:

FAN # 1+2+3 controlled , connected to MB , and i set the speed from bios
That releated with CPU , for ex cpu temp 40c these fans 50% , if CPU temp 60c fan 75% .


Fan# 4 + 5 direct to +12v , full speed .


I have 2 problems :
First: high noise of side fan #5 and if i change airflow direction from in to out , noise decrease but temp of gpu increase :(


Secound:
I dont know about normal or perfect temp on load for cpu and gpu to know im i in right way or i must change /add or remove fan , airflow direction , speed logic .
Also i still have one more empty place for one more fane "bottom " :

My spec :

Msi 1080 gaming x
Asus b250g

Asus 144hz 1080p DVI screen

Sorry for long post , but i try to show all details .

Any advice ......

Yeah, that's actually a pretty good result given that you're using the cheap Intel stock cooler on an i7. If those are typical temps for a gaming session, then I wouldn't bother changing anything as far as cooling performance goes, just for looks.

You should ditch that small (80mm?) lower front intake and get the size that actually fits in there. That'll allow you to get more airflow to the GPU with less noise. You'll then be able to either flip the side mounted fan for better exhaust of the GPU heat, or remove it altogether. The rest looks mostly fine and functional.

The lower front one , its an Old HP case "CPU" fan :) and its up to 4200rpm with low noise on 2400 to 3200 rpm , the best one in my desktop , i can sense by my hand a good air flow in gpu area coming from this one , i will try to remove the side one i think side fan which change the direaction of lower front to outside before reach gpu , i just want to be sure that i setup right fans /airflow "in - out " in general .

Thanks for replay i will test and post result .

Overall, as long as you're getting decent temps, your setup is fine (though it's not exactly appealing). You're not doing anything wrong if it works :V
The only reason I'd suggest changing it up a bit is so that your CPU cooler doesn't end up sucking in any of the heat from the GPU since that style of cooler pushes air up and around the heatsink. However, like I said, if the temps you're getting are reasonable, then there's really no need to change your setup. If it works, it works.

thanks for replay

about ""I'd suggest changing it up a bit is so that your CPU cooler doesn't end up sucking in any of the heat from the GPU " in my last replay " CPU FAN " I mean fan #1 , it was for HP CPU FAN and I use it in this case in lower front , I remove side one and my case temp as below
tested on BT1 - ultra 1080P DX12 144hx :

and CPU maximum 61C

I think that's very good status . isn't ?
