Hi thunderselim, welcome to my channel and thank you so much of your kind words, greatly appreciated it 😊
I want to ask you a question. In the H pattern, the fans at the bottom push the air down. The GPU pushes it up. How does the air cycle between the fans at the bottom and the GPU happen? Don't they fight against each other? I was pleasantly surprised that this template turned out so well.@@KleoYan
@@thunderselim good question. For horizontal mount. The warm air pushes from the GPU is towards the motherboard and side glass pannel. This is where the bottom fans will draws them away instead of circulating back to the GPU fans. You are right about the fight there but the heat from the GPU heatsink does not stay, even fighting to draw cool air, the heatsink will cool by itself, so long it does not accumulate heat (passive cooling) The GPU heatsink passive cooling is rapid. when the heat from the pipes dissipate to the GPU heatsink, the big surface area can dissipate better as there are no warm air circulating back through the GPU fans, which can cause the heatsink to accumulate more heat, resulting in bad thermal. Hope this help.
Thank you very much for your answer. Using the H template is much nicer as the front surface of the rgb fans is visible. If I hadn't watched this video, I would have tied the back of the rgb fans like in template A. I think the only negative point of this version is that it will pick up a lot of dust from the side since it does not have a dust filter.@@KleoYan
@@thunderselim you are most welcome and yup you are right again. That’s why for my two rigs. I weekly dust off with a portable blower at low speed and also stop the fans with chopsticks to prevent them from spinning while am blowing the dust. Reason to stop the fans, wouldn’t want current to flow back to the motherboards which will be bad.
Very detailed video man 👍
I live in the UK and use A but with my 280 kraken in the side with tubes up 🤷🏻♂️ it’s hassle trying to get it with tubes down with the GPU and it’s cabling in the way.
I wish AIO manufacturers would offer you a longer hose variant so it would make mounting easier.
Love the colour combo you went for, the GPU has nice rgb too which just adds unlike my palit 3080 😏😂
Hi Helghast73, welcome to my channel. I can understand how you felt about the hose lenght I would prefer hose to be longer and at the radiator to have a swivel kind of connector. so that your hose can get out of the way from tounching the GPU. Thank you for your feedback and to have visited my channel.
Just subbed bro! Hello from Malaysia!Love your work. Ambient of 29-31, equator tings.😂.
Hi Vanos, welcome to my channel and thank you for valuable feedback and complitment 😉

Hi Yan Valle, welcome to my channel and thank you for your valueable feedback. All the best with your build too. 😉
Great video. When will you get around to testing with the GPU upright? That seems to be the preferred installation method particularly if you have an inverted case. Love the color combo.
Hi [NLB] Sun Wolf, welcome back. that will be tested on an EVO XL. kindly allow sometime as it will be a long process. thank you!
Great video and detailed information.
Hi P L, welcome to my channel and I am glad you like my content. All the best with your build too. 😉
There's just one other fan configuration I wanted to see that wasn't tested here. Basically A configuration, but with the rear fan set to intake. My reasoning for this is cause it gives more air for the AIO, and the AIO doesn't need to fight against that fan anymore. Only I and J test this, but I and J are definitely bad because they have bottom fans set to exhaust. So basically all fans as intake but the top fans. I imagine this configuration will be surprisingly decent, and get close to as good as configuration A.
Hi LemonZone, welcome to my channel. You do have a point I see what I can do to have a test on it. Thank you for the suggestion.
First, Very good job. Only 1 point is since this 40 Gen Card are relatively cool. It might more sounding with a 4090. Also is this result will apply to my Lian Li O11 XL?? Appreciate for your work!!!
Hello Hansen Wang, welcome to my channel, I have no idea how it will react on O11D XL, but it should be of the same structure. You are right about the 4000 series, they do run cooler as comparted to my 3080. Thank you for pointing that out..
Kudos with the test. I wonder if u able to do it with open loop setup orientation as well. Looking forward if u planning to do one 😊😊
Hi Kevin Liew, as for custom loop, do pardon me, am not able to do that as I have no experience in custom water loop, so sorry about it. Thank you for your suggest and to have visit my channel.
Thank you for your hard work. However, it’s a shame that there are no tests for gaming environments. I wish there were test results with the graphics card fan running. Anyway, thank you for the good test. It was very helpful
Hi 야로나, welcome to my channel, these are just some references, but thank you for your feedback.
We have almost the same name! Great informative video!
Hi Cleodiuss, welcome to my channel and I am glad you like my content. Thank you for your feedback too and all the best with your build 😉
Nice work! I have this case and am using setup A with 10 SL Infinity fans. My 7700x is in ECO mode so it stays under 65C, same with my 4080. Your previous video on how to connect Lian Li fans was incredibly helpful to me with my recent build. Will you cover how to best set fan curves using L-Connect 3?
Hi tigerdave, welcome to my channel and thank you for your valuable feedback. I see what I can do with the PWM settings in L-Connect 3 app, but it's going to take sometime, hope you dont mind waiting. thank you!
Great vid! Did you have the aio radiator in the top during every test? So the fans exhausting had to push through the radiator?
Hello Gustav Holmberg, welcome to my channel and yes, this test is conducted with the liquid Ari at the top or the chassis.
Fantastic comparison, great work! Just bought this case and am slowly buying other parts to build a new pc, so this is great info 😁 one question though. I was planning to place my aio at the side instead of the top like you have it in this video. Do you think that would make a significant difference in these results / is there a good reason to go for a top mount instead?
Hello Fluffy Waffles, welcome to my channel and thank you for your feedback. My reason for not placing the AIO at the side as I don't like the hose tension. In general in all case, if i intend to mount the radiator at the front or top, I will set the AIO hose at the bottom. In this case it's not idea as there are too much tension on the hose, unlike Arctic Liquid Freezer II where it has a hose lenght of 450mm. Now if it's possible to mount at the side. As what I have experience from my previous case, the O11D mini. the hot air goes in to the case, plus at the bottom pushing hot air from my GPU.. so there are less cool air intake as compared to having AIO at the top, you have both sides and bottom as cool air intake. that I believe will improve the air circulation instead of accumulating hot air in the case.
Thank you so much for the response! You bring up some great points that I'll take into consideration when building my pc. It's my first time using an aio so I'm still gathering information. I'll be sure to subscribe and look at some more of your videos as well!
@@FluffyWaffle hi, you are most welcome. maybe these will aid you along the way. ua-cam.com/video/xZ2R4roF1_Q/v-deo.html (method to apply thermal paste, my style) , choosing the right AIO ua-cam.com/video/YTojxRPyrQs/v-deo.html often flashy argb AIOs are noisy or does not perform well. Understanding PWM and DC Mode ua-cam.com/video/MCMkrQwFnKM/v-deo.html and many more.. you got to spend sometime going through my past videos.. some with in-depth pointers regarding about PC builds.
That's the exact config (A) I have in my O11D XL. It's the only one that makes any sense for triple 360 Rads.
Hi xybp942, welcome to my channel. yup.. I do use Style A most of the time but there are others who are new or confuse what placement is good, thats why decided to do up this content and with the help from Lian Li of course.
@@KleoYan fair enough
I'm a long time watcher. I liked your fan comparison videos
@@iamdmc thanks. Am just trying to help that’s all. Am not really a reviewer. Not qualified. Only to share experiences 😉
Good knowledge to know for beginners like me, I am following with A approach, one question where did you put the AIO in the A(side or top), at the end I see aio is on the top
Hi SANDEEP MADHIRA, welcome to my channel, this test is done with AIO at the top.
Good job!
Hi Horazon, welcome to my channel and thank you for your valuable feedback. All the best with your build too 😉
Great video can i ask you which fans are used I really like the color used
Hi Stundar Dutch, welcome to my channel. These are the Lian Li AL120 V2 uni fans.
Yes i live in california and it is similar here 30+c every day most of year sometime over 40c in summer. And when ppl from other country say that my temp is too high, i say no there is illavoiding it. My CPU temp is 80+ c while gaming and GPU temp 75c while gaming no matter what I do.
Hello Direwoof, welcome to my channel, yup I understand your situation. This is part of the reason why I have to limit the power draw as by default, mine is hovering over 90 and above with the power drawn of 253 watts. which is very high, unlike some colder countries, they have no problem to run at default whereby their temps are much lower than us. Once again thank you to have visit and to leave your valuable feedback.
@@KleoYan Y'es I have my CPU and GPU both undervolt to help with that, my RX 6800 only pulls 155w whilst gaming at 2200 mhz.
@@Direwoof I see.. thats good.. infact I find it no point overclocking as these days processor are already running fast..
Very useful, i don’t have this case but it will be useful for anyone!
Hello Kalestra, welcome to my channel. Thank you for your feedback. this might be useful for you. ua-cam.com/video/xZ2R4roF1_Q/v-deo.html once again thank you to have visited.
I’ll try searching your channel and know you cover it briefly at the beginning of this video about power/ overclocking. I know it comes auto but have heard that can be a reason why temps get so hot for the auto setting. Maybe the volts or something involving the cores? Also dont like my Lian Li fan controller cpu temp I can put on my pump is really the cpu package temp display and not the cpu temp like it should be. I would compare to other softwares and the cpu temps wood be different but the package temps would match. I also might switch coolers. This is the newer one with the big lcd screen but I liked the kraken elite. Anyway I notice from changing the auto overlock feature in BIOS to disabled my temps dropped like 10 degrees so I’m wondering if I should do it manually? Obviously I want to get the most out of it I can but not burn my cpu
Hi Daniel Revell, welcome to my channel. what I did is undervolt which does impact alittle on performance, but due to the harsh weather condition in my country, I am perfectly fine with it, so long it's below 90 degrees. It's all up to you to manual tweak it and I do it manually as I have more control over my PC.
You are the best ! Thank you for this very informative video ! I have a question: why are the gpu fans not running at the end of the video ?
Hi 0057brvh, welcome to my channel and thank you for your valuable feedback, greatly apprieciated it. The RTX 4000 series, at idle where the temperature does not go above 50 degrees, they will remain zero RPM. that's why during conclusion, the GPU Fans are not spinning.
@@KleoYan Oh ok I didn't know, thank you ! I learn more and more thanks to you, keep it up man !
@@000pilt51 you are most welcome 😉
Thanks for the video, this is a great resource. I really prefer my right side fans to be exhaust because I have SL INFs, but I had the impression most right side exhaust configurations werent good on thermals, so this helps a ton. Question though, in configuration B, would it be better to have the left fan as intake? I thought it could at least slightly help with the 7 exhaust fan negative air pressure but was not sure
Hi Chubidoon, welcome to my channel. I believe I have miss out two configuration. Let me see what I can find out. Btw do you mind to send me an email. I will update you on your request. Godzyatech@gmail.com and thanks for pointing that out.
@@KleoYan oh no worries, I don't want you to have to reset your build to re-test just for that. I don't think those 2 configurations are popular enough to warrant a re-test lol. I really was just curious if you think the change would help with dust intake or not, that's my main worry
@@chubidoon9382 you know when you have mentioned the configuration. It got me curious too. not to worry, I will do some research and to let you know the answer as for dust, I think by doing a DIY dust filter might help to prevent dust, just need to find which correct filter mesh hole sizes to minimized the dust intake. the dust filter as mention, it's not difficult to make, I did that on my Q58 by replacing DIY mesh from the glass panel ua-cam.com/video/LLA7Ybw14Dc/v-deo.html and with this said, I think you have a valid point there.. the cooling will improve so I see what I can do no worries.
@@KleoYan woah I didn't see that video, didn't know it was that easy and convenient, I might copy you on that. Thanks for that recommendation, and for looking into the configurations more, keep up the good videos 👍
@@chubidoon9382 you are most welcome. Anyway I am a PC builder like yourself, that's why I only dare to share my experience but not reviews as a reviwer. By the way, maybe this will help you further. I have share my method on applying thermal paste and it does help heaps. ua-cam.com/video/xZ2R4roF1_Q/v-deo.html and if you are applying this method, do not apply too much paste.. spread it thin ,so that there will be better heat absorption on the surface area between the IHS (processor top) and the Coldplate.
You are the best!!
Hi Ryan Chenoweth, welcome to my channel and thank you for your feedback. All the very best with your build too. 😉
I was accidentally running config B, but after switching to A it's much nicer.
Hi Anequit, welcome to my channel. Nice, that’s good, am glad it does cool better for
you. Thank you for your valuable feedback 😉
Now I will definitely watch this
Hi Ya Ron Swanson, welcome back, I am glad you are watching my other content. I have another video which might interest you.

@@KleoYan Buddy I am here to take any help I can get. I love learning about this stuff. I will check this out too!
@@ronswanson1410 that's good 😊do allow me to share my content with you then www.youtube.com/@KleoYan/videos or playlist www.youtube.com/@KleoYan/playlists
So for the H configuration for horizontal GPU mount you will only use 1x120mm intake fan in the back. And rest exhaust? Also the GPU fans and the bottom exhaust fans wouldnt they just "fight" eachother? Awesome research.
Hello MeGusta SKINKE, welcome to my channel. the only fan size you can cater for the rear in this case is 120mm and infact the whole set up are using 120mm AL V2 fans. as for the bottom exhuast, I did have this concern like yours but when I did compilation on 3D stuff, the GPU does not go beyond 50 degrees and the fan on the GPU is not even turning. This is due to the fact that the bottom fans are drawing heat away from the GPU at the bottom. Do note, this is based on a RTX 4070 Ti card. which most 4070ti or 4080 GPU runs cooler compared to the RTX 3000 series.
How important do you think is the rear fan for exhaust? I only have 6 fans + AIO, so currently they're mounted AIO Top Exhaust, Bottom and Side Intake. Should I buy one more?
Hello LR. welcome to my channel, alot will argue not to have rear fans, since there are already 3 exhaust at the top. I differ the difference, the rear fan does draw massive of hot air out and do remember, the radiator at the top does give obstruction and if lesser warm air to reach the radiator, the better cooling you will have for your processor.
Thank you for your work und your video. But what about a reverse build? When i insert the GPU in a reverse build, the fans of the GPU face upwards and then fighting with the top exhaust fans, don't they? Or does this not really matter?
Hi Stefan Lubbers, welcome to my channel. That will be on further content as I did mention in this video, I will be doing the content, but will need to wait. Thank you for your visit.
Hi,
Did you manage to make any tests with the inverted configuration?
Hi Marcello Maia, welcome to my channel. Do pardon me, I did mentioned that I will do that but I am pretty caught up at work, plus other content. I see what I can do in future. sorry to keep you waiting.
Is there enough space to put 4 ram sticks in or do the tubes hit? I was planning on going with the aio and intake fans on the side, intake on the bottom with exhaust on top and rear, or would I be better switching the aio position? i should mention i'm in the UK so weather is variable lol
Hi Rod Donnelly, welcome to my channel. fitting 4 sticks is not an issue, plenty of space. as for arrangement of liquid AIO, for my end it's more ideal to place it at the top and to exhuast out. You see, having AIO at the side as intake, my weather condition though is drawing cool air but is consider warm warm air. So the airflow on cool air is minimium. I only depends on the bottom fans. There will be more warm air than to cool air drawing in. Thats why I place my liquid AIO at the top as exhaust and to channel both cool air from the side and bottom.
@@KleoYan I suppose that makes sense, I guess that's the way I'll go then :) thank you
With configuration "A" and with GPU mounted horizontally. What do you suggest is the best AIO placement to keep a 14900k cool? Top exhaust or Side intake? GPU is 4080 Super. AIO is Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360mm. I'm from a hot country and it hits over 40* celsius in summer.
Hi Shahriar Haque Asif, welcome to my channel. 14900k by default, runs hot. With configuration A, yes that’s the 2nd best layout. I would do offset and power limit to bring down the temperature lower. This you have to figure out how to under volt.
@@KleoYan What AIO placement is best for this setup? Top Exhaust or Side Intake?
@@Shahriar.H I would go for aio at the top exhaust. Fish tank cases like this, the bottom intake only gives partial cool air which cools your GPU and bring warm air up. The side if you place the rad as I take. Again warm air is brought in. You need cool air therefore placing rad at the top while the side is just intake, that is the only place where it draws in cool air.
It seems to me that your temperatures is very high, my current cpu temp in the Lian Li Dynamic XL with 2 uni fans and a corsair AIO and one 120 fan in the back,room temperature a out 25 degrees celsius, my CPU temp is 50-60 degrees celsius during load .
Hi Tarren604, welcome to my channel. I am from a hot and humid country where the consistent temperature out there is at 33°C to 36°C and my room stays around 30°C to 31°C. The so call cool air drawing into the case is warm. Unlike countries which have cooler temperature.
there is a possibility to install 420mm AIO Liquid Cooler Corsair iCUE H170i Elite
Hello MUSTAFA STUDIO, welcome to my channel. Thank you for your feedback.
I have a o11d dynamic, now with r5 3600 air cooled with side intake and thats all it works fine, but now I'm switching to 7800x3d with air cooler to, and i wonder how to setup fans, my gpu is horizontal, i think about like, side -> intake, top -> exhaust and last bottom and here I don't know intake or exhaust ? thanks for your answer.
Hi Exo1, welcome to my channel. Based at the region I am from, I did a test on Aircooling, configuration A still applies. Side Intake, Bottom Intake, Top and Rear Exhaust. You might want to test out the various positioning too. Let us know your findings too. Thank you!
@@KleoYan Thank you very much 🙂
@@exo1766 you are most welcome. do test it out yourself too and all the best with your setup.
I'm a little bit late to the party, but I was wondering if you were able to compile your testing with the front mesh panel and gpu mounted upright? I'm trying to help out a coworker with a build she's working on, and she's got her heart set on the upright gpu, but she's also very concerned about temps in general, so this video has already been a great help to me (there's so little end user data out there on fan placements and resulting temps in this case despite its popularity and how long it's been on the market!). That said, if you have any info about how things turned out for you with the front mesh planel and upright gpu mount, I'd love to hear about it! Thanks for the upload and all the great information! Subbed.
Hi Andrew Swanson, welcome to my channel. Based on what I have experience and due to busy work schedule, I will just explain here of what my findings. if you only place the front mesh with GPU Vertical Mount as illustrated here (Style A), it gets mixed results. GPU does drop 3 to 4 degrees celcius but the CPU weirdly increase by 2 to 3 degrees.
If you place upright GPU with intake at the side. This gives better results. GPU does drop 5 to 7 degrees and the CPU does drop by 2 to 3 degrees. The reason for this, direct intake of cool air to your GPU at the side and there are no blockage of the bottom fans which pushes more cool air up. Having more cool air to push the heat from your motherboard area.
@@KleoYan Wow, thanks for the information! Good stuff, there. Confirms what I suspected but was unsure of. Out of curiosity, did you ever try the upright GPU with the case inverted? My friend doesn't particularly care whether or not the case is inverted, but I've seen some people choosing to do this with the upright GPU and now I'm curious.
@@andrew_swanson Hi, ok sorry for the late reply and it took me one day to set up my system in inverted mode. I am not getting any good temps with inverted settings. reason being the rear fan makes no sense, you see the bottom fans (more rear) is blowing cool air to the motherboard area but instead of having the cool air. the rear fan which is position directly behind the motherboard rear I/O, it's drawing the cool air out instead of landing it on your motherboard area. If I am to remove the rear fan. the hot air travels to the top is of a distance. Another pointer, it takes more time to build in inverted mode. the routing of cables is rather messy, as the cable traveling distance is shorter between the PSU and to your motherboard. More cables will need to be tuck at the PSU Compartment area. I don't like inverted mode. It might look good if you do it right but not very practical interms of thermal results.
@@KleoYan Whoa, you really took the time to set up your rig in inverted mode? Very flattering for a random yt commenter! It's really appreciated tho, seriously. That's a good point regarding the cable distances. Had not thought of that one since I haven't ever bothered to try inverted with the few evos I've worked on. I may give it a shot just to see how it looks on my desk if I ever decide to purchase an evo for myself, but the cable management problems might deter me since it's technically not a necessity unless you want it to be. I might try to use the rear fan as an intake if I ever do try it out since its location would be so much farther away from the mobo, but if it weren't optimal, then like you said, you're left with less than ideal options with what you can do with it. Remove it and disturb the bottom intake less, but then increase the distance the air needs to travel to the mobo, or leave it and look at it being redundant and kind of useless in such an odd location. Hm. Something to think about for the future for me.
Anyway, thank you very much for taking the time and going through the effort of building just to answer a curiosity driven question. Really, very impressive stuff!
@@andrew_swanson hi and you are most welcome. I am as cuious as you too, thats why I take sometime to do it.. anyway I think it will be a better idea to do rear as intake as it does force the warm air to go up to the top. All the very best with your friend's build too.
H has no dust filtered intake from the back.
A it is.
Hi Honkler Bear, welcome to my channel and thank you for your feedback.
Surprisingly my config is C but with the rear fan as intake. Closest config is C
HEllo Creepto, welcome to my channel, I see. how's your temperature like and hank you for your feedback.
Can you add a 2 140 fan on front with configuration A, see what the results are.
Hi Francis Dumlao, welcome to my channel, the temperature drops by 2 to 3 degrees on the processor and as for the GPU, is a drop by 5 to 7 degrees.
Thanks for the quick answer.
@@francisdumlao8040 you are most welcome. All the best with your build too 👍
what about top + bottom blowing down and rear + side out to right exhaust?
Hi JL Courtoreille, welcome to my channel. do pardon me as I no longer have this case but in general, it's not ideal to have top as intake and bottom as exhaust. Hot air travels to the top and based on experience, you get bad thermal results as the hot air still reside within the case, even if you have rear and side exhaust.. most of your hot air will greatly depend on the rear instead of the side.
Using the C config myself for extra ddr5 ram cooling and an additional 120mm ram fan but yeah generally heat rises yes but u can easily overcome it even with low spinning rpm fans. The o11 imo is really a great case because u can really test different fan configs and c works best for me top bottom intake, side and rear exhaust. In the traditional tower cases I would top exhaust because they are limited to fan spots in the case
@@IamMxfiahi and welcome to my channel. Thank you to have share your experience with us. Greatly appreciate it and yes this case if pretty flexible once you plan and execute nicely for airflow 👍
what's the Rgb color for the fans
Hi JavierRiquelme, welcome to my channel. I just use L-Connect 3 to pick the colors. Which is mix light yellow and red. Which will gives an orange tint.
With this casing is it enough to use just AIO for CPU only for 7900x3dfor those on a tight budget?
Hi @Ttblondey, welcome to my channel. I would advise you to get a case which has more ventilated holes. O11D Evo will only be good if you populate with case fans. If you just place an aio without case fans. It will be like an oven.
@@KleoYan thanks
Maybe I'll go for fractal torrent
@@Ttblondey for the torrent case, in my opinion is more towards using aircooler.
@@Ttblondey hi, ok.. all the very best with your build 😉
Lian Li O-11 Dynamic Evo XL fan cofiguration ?
Hi gRUBYsUM, welcome to my channel. Be it EVO, EVO XL or EVO RGB, same configuration apply but EVO XL have the advantage to use all 140mm fans and with two rear fans.
@@KleoYan Hello, yes, I am a subscriber to your channel, I mean the configuration with 120 size fans, or giving the same configuration, i.e. 4 at the top, 4 at the bottom, or 3 in the middle front and two at the back, how they should be installed, that's mainly what matters o 4 upper front fan. housing, should it be blowing or blowing air over these three, if I have a tower cooler on the processor? and a graphics card mounted in a pcie riser.
@@grubysum4861 Hi for aircooling, if you are able to set you aircooler to push hot air out to the top. this is what I will configure.
- Top 140mm x 3 exhuast
- Side 140mm x 3 intake
- Bottom 140mm x 3 intake
- Rear 140mm x 1 intake.
If aircooler is fix whereby it pushes hot air only to your rear, the top fans are redundant. as your aircooler heavily depends on cool air inside the case, which is depending on your side intake. If you place exhuase fans at the top, your cool air from the side, before reaching to your aircooler it's being draw off to the top, which defeat the purpose. You might say why not top intake. This will only push hot air back to the case.
What would it be like with tower cooling instead of a radiator, e.g. Deedpool AK 620 Digital.
@@grubysum4861 as much as I like to answer, based on my region and to operated without aircon, I have lots of problems using an aircooler, therefore the temps will always be at 90 or above even after I limit the power limits on Intel platform(Offset, PL1 and PL2) or AMD platform (offset and PBO2)
The research on this video is A+++
Gamers Nexus watch out!
Hello Cogthusiast, welcome to my channel and thank you for the compliment.
@@KleoYan no thank you for the efforts Kleo.
Your explanation of your test methodology and the eventual presentation format of the data was really fantastic. Really well thought out.
Thank you, really doing an amazing job!
@@cogthusiast1150 thank you very much, I appreciate your valuable feedback as it does motivate me further to do more useful content. thank you.
And where is just top out??
Hi Miroslav, welcome to my channel. what do you mean by where is just top out? care to elaborate?

@@MiroslavJahelka oh .. you spotted something.. ok good. I see what I can do on the next video. thank you!
@@user-fx6sh9sq3g There have been dozen of tests during the last +20 years of PC building determining the best fan configuration for water cooling and AIO setups. Results consistently show that using radiator fans as intake has no significant effect on the CPU temperature - the reason why is easily explained by physics. Actually, when using the rad fans as intake instead of exhaust you will end up with slightly higher internal component t temperatures and roughly the same CPU temperatures. JayzTwoCents published yet another demonstration of this a few days ago ua-cam.com/video/xB4u97sTB8w/v-deo.html
All this hassle and this test is totally useless. Why would you not test with both items working. Video card makes a huge difference in how all this will work. Total fail. I really feel bad that you have done all this work for meaningless results.
Hello Marvin Smaga, welcome to my channel. Thanks for your feedback. I wouldn’t want to ram both cpu and gpu at the same time. Plus when you either work or play games, does both ram up at 100 percent for long hours? Hence with the test here to show the airflow and temp gives a rough idea how temperatur works in this Environment. I don’t feel is a waste. But thanks for your comment. Have a good day.
@@KleoYan Of course when you run a game if you have proper setup your GPU will run close to a 100% and CPU utilization will depend on the game, usually between 40 - 70%. The important factor is that GPU will dump so much heat into your case that it will affect everything. Also GPU fans working will definitely affect the airflow. So yes, your results are only valid for CPU only related workflow and are meaningless for gaming. Also the number of fans that you have in your setup is actually causing more harm the help. No matter how you set it up you always have at least two fans that are not doing any active cooling. I will bet you that you will get equally good results or even better when remove two or three fans from it. This setup is only good for a show off.... for a youtube build to look pretty
@@marcinsmaga3441 thank you for the comments and feedback. I will re-evaluate myself. If you have more to comment besides show off maybe, arrogant or any sort. Feel free to comment on. Once again thanks for visiting.
