Case Airflow: Positive or Negative Pressure?. Based on comments in , I now have a question about the ideal way to set up airflow through a case. It seems that there are two camps in this debate -- those that think the air pressure in the case should be positive,...

the pressure inside your case would require something more than your average computer fan. And if you did manage to raise the pressure inside your case it would be warmer since when you compress air it heats up. And we certainly don't want that. I would say...

for my new system You want a bit more air intake than output because it creates a higher pressure inside the case. At higher pressures the air molecules are closer together so that they conduct the heat out faster. My other personality is schitzofrenic....

of sucking infiltered air into the case. These cracks are primarily holes in the case itself, but are also the CD-ROM drive and the floppy drive. Have a negative pressure in the case will cause a tiny bit of air to be sucked in through the CD-ROM, pulling airborne...

better to have more intake pressure than exhaust pressure in your case, and to have filters on the intake fans. This creates a positive-pressure system where air only comes into the case through the filters. Having the reverse effect (a vacuum inside the...

case if You do not count side fan. If You will have positive preesure already before side fan, it will do nothing running @400 rpm as it cannot produce enough pressure to overcome pressure already in case, it will just stir air in itself. Now for the dust...

computer, room temperature air out.) However, when we do that a new problem crops up: frost builds up on the outside of the case and also on things inside the case that don't produce enough heat. We can't for the life of us figure out why ducting the...
