I am looking to improve my airflow.
for intake, I have the 2 fans on the front, and one on the side that hits right on the graphics card. I just removed an extra dvd drive and I have an extra fan sitting unsecured in that bay.
for exhaust I just have the one on top.
they are all 120mm.
what I want to do is add another fan for exhaust on the top but my cpu water cooler is in the way.
my questions are...
1. would it hurt to move the fan for the water cooler to the outside of the case with the radiator on still on the inside? it was installed by Cyberpower and I have not messed with it, would I be able to pull the tubes and pass them through the grommets? how big of a mess would that be?
2. could I have the fans on top pulling air in and have the fan on the side of the case pushing out? I know heat rises, that's why I haven't changed it.
