Hello,

I was just playing Dark Messiah of Might and Magic and I noticed my cooling
fans and making quite some noise !

Like BZZZZZZZZZZZZZ... they are spinning at full speed.

And when I rebuilded my PC I noticed lot's of heat inside the case coming
from the chips and such.

As soon as I removed the case, the heat came free and the fans started to
spin more slowly so that's a clear sign the heat is not getting
properly transported out of the system.

The two harddisk fans might not even be required...

Maybe on harddisk fan enough.

Maybe I should replace one harddisk fan to the cpu section... near graphics
maybe... or just maybe near cpu where it's most hot...

However I am not sure if the fan should blow inwards or outwards...

Anyway interesting discovery...

Maybe I should go look for a better case with more airflow... or maybe first
try to fan replacing..

I'll try that first if possible

Also without the case door the case starts humming maybe if I remove other
case door it will be more in balance.

Yeah not sure what to do with airflow... in or out hmm...

First gotta detach one harddisk fan since I need those screws

Unless I can find screws some where else..

I specially ordered those screws... hmm I must have a few spare somewhere I
think not sure though.

Later
Skybuck,

Well,

I checked... I ordered 4 seperate fans and 1 extra rear fan.

However I can only mount 2 fans at the harddisks section.

The other 2 fans can't be mounted because the screws just fall out the case
plate which is ofcourse way too risk.

For now I have removed the other plate as well to balance the pc a bit.

I will have to find a way to attach more fans or I really need another case
with much more bigger airflow to make sure the heat gets very good out of
it...

Because the fans should be spinning slowly... not really fast... <- bad sign
during gaming

Oh well...

Gaming with open case for now.

Open cases are ofcourse very dangerous... one could accidently throw
something in... and dust clouds could get into it as well... bad

Even fire danger !

And hairs and stuff... not good, not good at all..

But I really wanna continue the game... and I really don't wanna spent my
time searching for a new case... so I will game with open case for now and
find better case in a few days.

Bye,
Skybuck.

Or maybe not... kinda makes the same sound.

Or maybe with case closed, the fans spin a little harder oh well.

The heat probably higher though with case closed

Also placed another book on top of the case to make it more heavy.. reduces
any vibrations

Bye,
Skybuck =D

It's totally on topic.

Electronics produce heat.

Bye,
Skybuck.

His posts about his motherboard are perfectly on topic.

This mindless netkkkcopping and encouragement of malicious
complaints is why you *deserve* trolls spoiling your group.

He is perfectly on topic.

Your troll feeding and plans to destroy other newsgroups such as AUK
are not.

Please stop posting your incitements to malicious complaints
to sci.electronics.design where it is totally off-topic or expect to
be on the receiving end of an abuse report to your ISP.

So what's Skybuck doing besides posting things you don't want to read?
