I was reading an article on positive case pressure (more air coming in than going out) and it seems like the way to go because it limits dust in the system and (maybe) increases cooling. Anyone have there case set up for positive pressure?
 
Yeah its personal preference really.

I prefer negative....I tried positive once and my temps went up 2 degrees. Also I vacuum my room 2 times a week and I have hardly ANY dust...I air every month still and I do a fan cleaning with Isopropyl alcohol every 6 months to get the dust that wont blow off the fins of the fan.

Personal preference once again.


Also I find the pantyhose idea HORRIBLE even super stretched it stops 50% of the fan flow and kills your fans within 6 months and increases heat.....just get a 30 dollar Air tank and go to the gas station and fill it up...will clean 10 PCs which a can of air is $5 and it will do 4-5.
 
I perfer even air flow:D. With one way, you have pressure in your case, stagnant air in the case. Lingering air causes heat. The other way with a vacuum in the case, the air flows good, but it will suck air in every crack in the case, alot of clean up. Best is to have the same amount pulled in that it sucked out, well as close as you can get. Keeps it cool and doesnt build up dust in every crack.
 
One of the positive benefits of nitrous is that it almost completely eliminates turbo lag. ... which monitors the pressure inside the tank so you know when it needs replacing. ... Which brand of motor oil do you use? Valvoline. Castrol .
 
Okay to expand off my positive pressure thread....

I have a Cooler Master ATCS 840 on order and I am wondering if I flip the top two fans and make them intake fans do you think I will have problems exhausting all the air?

I am going to make my own filter to cover the top two intake fans.
