Fan issues

The original case has one fan. I added 2 intakes (the power supply of these two are connected together and plugged to one pin location) and 1 outtake, making total of 4. I confirmed that the fans are running and facing the right direction. The CPU has a cooler with the fan running, and the GPU has 2 fans.

The temperature, when encoding, is high (84C). Before I reassembling the PC it was running max at 72C.

It could be that the thermal contact paste was not applied probably because after the first attachment, I had to remove the cooler a couple of times to make room to attach some cable. I am going to remove and clean it and reapply the paste.

Any suggestions?

I reapplied the thermal paste and reran the test. It maxed out at around 75C. That's good enough.
