StrangleHold said:The front should never be a exhaust fan, the front fan is to pull cool air in the bottom so the back fans pull hot air out no matter what video card you have, now the side fans can be tried either way to see which way is the coolest
BrandonL said:i have a question... when it comes to the fans, how would i clean then so that they take in/blow out more air? i've tried thoroughly rubbing the dust off with q-tips but it's not the best way. is there anything easier?
Archangel said:o really? well, i have my front fan as exhaust, because the heatsink + fan of my 6800GT is bolowing its hot air towards the front.
so,.. instead of blowing the hot air back into the case, i pull it out there imediately. and, because of that, my 6800GT ( Oc'd to ultra ) is at 43*C idle.
so, i does matter what grafics card you have.

but they're DC motors (though it still might help to hold the fan blades for cleaning purposes)because then its rpm will go way to high, and the inductors in the motor will be teared apart.

Agh, you're right... and you made me open my power conversion book that I never wanted to look at againyes.. but a DC motor also works with L's you know.
