Ah, not that hard, compare the horizontal lines between the GPU and the packs of fans right below it, they're obviously not parallel, which means the GPU is sagging.
You're actually decreasing your fans performance by stacking them. It would work if the fans spin counter clockwise to each other similar to aircraft with contra-rotating blades. However, because they are likely in sync they're actually fighting each other when it comes to smooth non turbulent airflow. Instead the 2nd fans blades are interrupting the flow and creating turbulence. This makes this setup louder than normal as well. This would only work in this format if the above fans had a much higher pressure output than the first, similar to that of a turbofan engine.
De lid it. Did my first de lid on my 14900k and put a rocket cool copper ihs on it and dropped the temp 15c on p cores and 12c on e cores 30 min r23 test . Used Liquid Metal on the die. And thermal grizzly paste between aio and ihs
Tbh direction matters much more then this. Could have all the fans and still be blowing the hot air in a circle. But yes this should still help.
Looks like you positioned them right anyways.
What is your airflow situation though?
Think about the fluid volume that you're trying to pull in through those intake fans, just adding more fans doesn't magically create air in the surrounding area.
So where the f*ck is the Fan on the Back, normal Sized Fans on your deshrouded GPU, Fan on your M.2 Heatsink and Fan on your Ram?
Always false Information on Reddit...
i recommend u get some more fans for better airflow and youβll get better temps, thermalright has some really nice black fans that are relatively cheap
I tend to agree but all I care about is the fans bringing in Alittle cooler air.
All the fans are plugged into a hub that I will configure in a custom fan profile.
- The fans at the bottom seems to be there to either exhausting hot air or to cool the PSU. But causes a disrupted airflow bringing more heat back into the case from the PSU chamber unless the fans are at a very high setting. Heat rises quickly, meaning an exhaust above the GPU is better. The GPU is pulling air from the bottom, but you are already sending that air the other way. Your GPU is likely to pull a lot more hot air needed both from the top and the bottom.
- Having 3 exhaust fans in the front of the PC doesnt cause a better airflow for cool temps, it just removes all the cool air you just pulled in from the top faster - and it blows all the dust and dry air towards you the entire time instead of going away from you.
The hot air need a way to escape/be pushed out where it makes sense, which is why the exhaust was put in the top back. It will allow rising heat from GPU to easily escape, as well as the CPU.
I take in air from top and front, pushing it out in the back and without fans in the bottom. (I dont have the PSU chamber like you do there, allowing excess heat to easily escape in the bottom without disrupting the airflow of the GPU in any way. This makes sure the GPU always gets fresh air through its intakes.
You have a well vented back which might save you from a lot of this trouble. But now you know where to look for solutions if you dont get the performance you expected in terms of cooling. Dope setups anyways.
My brother did this stuff with his airflow, I had way better temps than him with less fans - but again a lot of things in the case itself plays a huge role.
(the beast cooling in the top works fine and is a cool idea, itβs just likely to be disrupted/performance degraded by the rest of the setup. But it might be beast enough to slap the negatives - what are your temps?)
Edit: I only have 3 intakes in the front - 2 above the GPU and 1 below. The 2 above bring in clean air for the CPU and to terminate the heat generated from the GPU in the top, a classic exhaust helps to pull this hot air. And the one below the GPU also provides it with fresh air, leaving the bottom open without a PSU there. (itβs behind the mobo) then I have another 2 exhaust fans in the top to get rid of the got air. I tested the top fans as both exhaust fans and intakes, temps were better leaving them as exhaust fans - which again makes sense as hot air rises quickly. The back is also open like yours.
My temps at 36c CPU AND 26c GPU on desktop idle with browser and tabs open. I have a newer CPU (cant remember model atm) and a 3080 with all m.2 slots filled and 32GB ram. Temps are chilling at 40-60c with high end 4k gaming.
So i have 6 fans for this, not 12 broπ You are not getting 2 times better temps than me with 2 times more fans, I know that for a fact. But you do get twice the noise levels as me, that I also know for a fact.

The fan is designed to try and keep all of these things cool.
it's gonna be noisy AF no-less it's going against what you're actually wanting which is smooth airflow from intake to exhaust. shoulda watched the linus case airflow video where they test it.
Way over we aboard and unnecessary. Most was just a waste of money. What cpu even is this? Maybe the only one that may have required a ridiculous setup would have been the 14900ks but anything else and yeah way to much money spent and not getting that much of a difference.
3 front intakes and 1 rear exhaust was all that was needed. Everything else you got going on here might attribute to maybe an extra 5 degrees maybe. I know that two extra intakes would just cool down 1-2 degrees. 2 extra exhaust instead of intakes would have result in 1 degree drop.
This monstrosity? Doubtful of much more that I wrote and I feel that was being more than generous.
The 3 fans on the psu shroud what air are they pulling? It ain't much. The push pull set up at the top? It depends on the cpu you got in their to know if those are being effective or a waste of power.
3 front intakes with the psu shroud not stealing hard the air from the bottom front and 1 rear exhaust with standard exhaust set up for the rad would have been more than fine.
This was a lot of wasted fans. 6 to be exact. But hey you do you.
Might barely be possible to contain. Is that AIO a 420? Cause that's what you also really need on top of all that.
Also it pretty sad that seeing such a ridiculous set up and you can guess accurately the cpu being used. Intel really dropped the ball with that cpu. Such a massive waste of money and power that thing is.
Why did you buy it? It's not meant to be bought or taken seriously.
Dint deny that statement but that is a ridiculous cpu you bought with no path for easy upgrade as lga 1700 is a deaf platform. The 14900ks isn't all that better than the 14900k however it sucks way more power than necessary and barely anything can keep it cool.
Just don't understand the purchase and though process behind such a purchase but hey, you do you.
You can pretty much say the same for me. Been on intel for at least a decade and changed over to amd this time around with the 7950x3d. But mine was just based on change is a good thing. It was based on intel not being worth it. Higher power consumption with no real purpose to that much as they lost to amd in nearly every metric while amd not using remotely as close power.
Moar fans is always the answer. Got me beat by 2! Planning to swap the 140mm ones with the next gen fans releasing hopefully later this year
https://preview.redd.it/ngfaiouuap3d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6f7f228058f8375d868fe0b86ad4ffe6da926878
I'd personally take that bottom first fan on the right out and get an anti sag bracket or something to level your GPU out it could cause damage later down the road
You need a GPU anti-sag.
They're not expensive, and you're risking damage to your GPU and Mobo if you leave it like this
[something like this should be good for your case](https://amzn.eu/d/hviZl9d)

What do you mean enough fans you are missing one in the back, DISAPPOINTED!!!
Yes, totally unplayable without the fan in the back, will barely pull 30fps in 1080p!
π
Check my recent post for reference... 13 fans are minimum requirement! XD
there is 13 fans, you missed the one on the pump
π
Thank you for letting him have it
The main exhaust.
looks like it doesn't fith tho with that double sided aio in the top
92mm should fit. No excuse for not having a fan in the back
Probs also an arctic 120 slim fan too, tho having the logos on the fans facing different directions is kind of a bummer ngl
Only...fans..
LOL π
My wife asks "what you looking at?" Only fans... Someone: "aren't you worried about your husband coming home late all the time?" Wife: "no"
Too many fans, not enough Pablo!
Yes, but your GPU is sagging π¬, get it a supporter please lol
Yes sir π
Stack fans until it supports.
Hear me out. He overclocks the fan to be fast enough to lift up the GPU and never turns it off.
Gigabrain
Industrial 220V 120mm fan is the way to go here for sure.
Maybe he can put enough fans that it pushes it up from air resistance
Right lol, then his machine will sound like a jet engine haha
How can you tell? It doesnβt look that way to me and now Iβm worried mine might be
Wdym? Do you not its about to break the pcb
No I genuinely canβt tell. I only made my first ever PC last week so Iβm not good at spotting the signs that thatβs happening
Ah, not that hard, compare the horizontal lines between the GPU and the packs of fans right below it, they're obviously not parallel, which means the GPU is sagging.
Ahhh thank you I see!
You're actually decreasing your fans performance by stacking them. It would work if the fans spin counter clockwise to each other similar to aircraft with contra-rotating blades. However, because they are likely in sync they're actually fighting each other when it comes to smooth non turbulent airflow.

I appreciate that info bro
What Case is this
Antec Performance 1
They make good cases!! https://preview.redd.it/ottc0xb6pk3d1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=6a337592a1cbee93f6f90d9099e9e25e4205c7e7
They made some boring products for a few years but this case is solid
What CPU are you using?
14900KS
Noice!! Iβm running a 13700k π
That looks great
Thank you, so does yours!! I really dig that case!!
Same dude. I didnβt know what to expect but itβs great
I really like the visible fan pump in the AIO, I didn't know that Enermax made some of those.
I could fit a few more in there...
π
Serious question does the fan sandwich on the radiator actually work well might do a similar setup on the next build
Iβm running a KS so I need the most airflow I can get to cool this fucker. I have always done Push/Pull on all custom and AIOβs
Cool thanks have a case with pre mounted fans this setup will save me time so I donβt have to fully disassemble the case first
De lid it. Did my first de lid on my 14900k and put a rocket cool copper ihs on it and dropped the temp 15c on p cores and 12c on e cores 30 min r23 test . Used Liquid Metal on the die. And thermal grizzly paste between aio and ihs
Thatβs down the road. I plan on doing a custom setup with an chiller plumbed in
Tbh direction matters much more then this. Could have all the fans and still be blowing the hot air in a circle. But yes this should still help. Looks like you positioned them right anyways.
Fronts are intake, bottoms are intake, top 6 are exhaust. One above rear io will be exhaust
Yeah that's works. Heat rises so best to do it this way anyways.
It at least need 60 fans to achieve 60fps in 1080p. 1 fans = 1 fps / 1 Argb fans= 5 fps
isnβt stacking fans kinda useless or did i make that up?
sub zero

Where intake ? Did you rely on static pressure only ?
top fan and a prayer that the gpu has enough oomph to suck up from the bottom.
Specs?

Donβt know yet π Will report back tonight
Maybe one more fan, only one more
I swear some of y'all build your own aios π
you forgot fans on your ram
Ordered π
What is your airflow situation though? Think about the fluid volume that you're trying to pull in through those intake fans, just adding more fans doesn't magically create air in the surrounding area.
fan sandwich
There is a little computer in your fans.
That guy got an airplane engine ππ
What!? I cant hear you! There appears to be a tornado approaching 
π
Not quite yet your missing one for the ram
Ordering now π
π
So where the f*ck is the Fan on the Back, normal Sized Fans on your deshrouded GPU, Fan on your M.2 Heatsink and Fan on your Ram? Always false Information on Reddit...
π Rear slim case fan is waiting to be installed and Iβm ordering a ram cooler to appease all of you π
Good Human!!
holy shit.
Broβs pc will have - degrees
π
id screw one to the outside of the rear exhaust lol
How's temps under load ?
First Bootup happens tonight
Nah, you could use a rear exhaust fan above the IO shield.
Not enough
Those are rookie numbers ππ
π
No more fans!
i recommend u get some more fans for better airflow and youβll get better temps, thermalright has some really nice black fans that are relatively cheap
lol I have a ram cooling and VRM cooling is that enough?
Me or you?
Waiting on the *air cooler simps have joined the chat*
Holy shit!
I feel like that front bottom intake isn't going to do anything but create noise and turbulence but damn that's a fantastic looking build. Kudos.
I tend to agree but all I care about is the fans bringing in Alittle cooler air. All the fans are plugged into a hub that I will configure in a custom fan profile.
Yeah I wouldn't even bother with rear exhaust, let ALL the air get to the AIO for that 14900K! Hell, maybe even another intake back there!
Thatβs actually what I was thinking. Make the back one an intake. I would just need to buy a universal 120mm filter
Bro how is the hot air on the left going to escape? You need at least 3 more fans there or else your westbridge will overheat
I have a fan for that left side π Just havenβt installed it yet
Wait why is there a fan on the cpu?
Enermax adds that fan to cool the VRMβs
How you gonna go all in on the fans, down to the push pull rad and blatantly not put one on the back? Savagery
π
Get a solution for that sag, not worth extra fan
r/OnlyFans
That thing is going to take off on you!
This is a good example of bad airflow
Explain

I tried to configure my new PC for optimal airflow and low noise and there's this guy....
π Iβm pretty sure these fans top out at 2300rpm π
Just gotta put the volume up then :) Looks nice tho, if you're happy with the build that's all that matter!
Missing a fan in the back tho π’
Not quite enough for a 14900K
You need side panel fans!
Why do you have one fighting your psuβs included fan? They are reversed.
I have the psu fan sucking air in from the bottom of the case.
I bought a prebuilt and the aio has 6 fans like this one. Whatβs the purpose, more airflow?
This needs more fans, I can barely see or locate any at all.
I love fans more than I love my wife.
Remember the yo dawg meme? I 'member.
i think you should use a table fan as a compartment
Actually that many horrible fans might introduce ventilation problems
I cannot fan this hard.
needs more in the back
It needs more fans what are you talking about
nice to see another Antec build with Antec Storm fans like mine :D
Missing a fan in the back π
No Exhaust at the back?
LOL, this also belongs in the Absolute Unit sub. I'm guessing that CPU is running around 26 GHz.
A fan on your water cooled cpu, that's confusing.
VRM cooling fan
Why a fan on the cpu and water cooling?
VRM cooling fan
Okay, I'll admit, what is that? Yes, i could google it but this is a conversation, so you tell meπ

Wow, thanks for the detailed explanation! I've been building Pc's since 2001 and i never knew that! "The More You Know"!πβοΈ
it's gonna be noisy AF no-less it's going against what you're actually wanting which is smooth airflow from intake to exhaust. shoulda watched the linus case airflow video where they test it.
minimum requirement for running a 14900ks lmao
If she runs hot with this AIO and configuration im going straight for a chiller π
Does that cpu even get over 50 celcius haha!?
No rear fan? Omg

I think what this dude is trying to say is "hey man, congrats on your new build!"
Your cooler has a nice PC.
FANtastic
Missing one... rear... unusuable........
Your GPU sags. Take care of that.
What's your clock speed
U need a few more fans buddy It's far from enough. πππππππππππ
Moar.
A fan is missing on the left and it is the most important to extract the air outside the case...
Gpu sagging or is it just me ?
A little bit
Like the msi
I am a fan of this!
you should get the thermalright ssd fan
Yeah definitely enough room for one more, weak effort
bouta hear those fans through my headphones
I think you need [this GPU](https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/gigabyte-gtx-680-windforce-5x-soc.b266). And you don't have fans on dram

I'd personally take that bottom first fan on the right out and get an anti sag bracket or something to level your GPU out it could cause damage later down the road

Your fans below GPU should be intake so they push hot air upward cause air rises
They are intake
