Re: Air flow with new heatsink

as long as the heatsink air isnt moving towards the front of the case .........youll be fine


we had a fella on here not to long ago that was having heat problems........he had his exaust leaving the front of the case and the fresh air entering the back ......... we couldnt wake him up no matter how hard we tried, then about the time we all gave up on him, he switched things around the correct way .........fresh / cool air entering the front and hot air out the back; the OP's temps dropped over 10C ! and his hard drives were no longer used for cooking his eggs in the morning !
