    Discussion NR200 custom loop - How vital are top airflow fans vs top static fans?

    Hello, I'm doing a custom loop in my NR200 and i got 4 static pressure RGB fans that i might use. I also have stock 120mm cooler-master fans as well. My question lies in how much difference airflow fans are going to make since the entire loop is on water? I know it's all about exhausting hot...

    Dan Case - cpu cooler fin orientation

    Concept Heatsinks and airflow

    To follow a variant of a @Phryq's idea I came up with, I'm wondering if the following setup will cool an heatsink with fins* efficiently? (*This will be an heatsink with the apertures on its smaller sides as opposed to a regular top-down heatsink) As you can see, only the bottom part of the...
