you're in Europe/UK? I bought my A4 v4.1 from W360MOD and he has a new batch in July - I'm in SEA btw so it works out the best for me.

Hi. I'm here once again to ask your help.
I'm running a 3700X with a L9A on the AORUS X570 I and two noctua fans as exhaust (25mm under psu and 14mm under motherboard).
Everything is at stock settings exept for the fan curves.
My question is:
Does the 2 case fans affect cpu temps much? I mean, they are linked to vrm mos temp and since the one under the motherboard is noisy i was thinking of leaving them at a costant speed like 30%.
What you guys suggest?
Thanks!

there are adapter and cable for it, been posted in this thread a few times I just can't remember exactly where
I have the same setup except running 3900X instead of 3700X. the exhaust fans help more with VRM / M.2 / GPU temps than CPU temp. Have you made the fan duct for the L9a? It helps CPU temps more.
Hi, thanks for your response.
Yes i have a fan duct installed.
Currently i have my CPU_FAN curve set at 0 to 70°c at 50%, 70° to 80° linear line up to 80°c at 100%.
SYS_FAN (2 noctuas) curve set at 0 to 80°c at 30%, 80° to 90° at 60%, 100% from 90 and above.
What do you think? Any suggestion? Also do you mind sending your curves?
Thanks in advance!
my fan setup is that the 92mm on the cooler and the 92mm underneath the MOBO both plugged into CPU_FAN using a splitter and the fan underneath the MOBO also has a low noise adapter. The 92x25 underneath the PSU plugged to SYS_FAN. I set the fan curve via Gigabyte SIV:
- CPU_FAN: 0C-20%, 30C-20%, 44C-34%, 56C-52%, 64C-76%, and 70C-100%
- SYS_FAN: 0C-20%, 34C-20%, 50C-34%, 60C-54%, 66C-76%. and 70C-100%

Here is my temp today - half the time gaming, half the time web browsing + android emulator (ambient is 26-27C)
- CPU_FAN: 0C-20%, 30C-20%, 44C-34%, 56C-52%, 64C-76%, and 70C-100%
- SYS_FAN: 0C-20%, 34C-20%, 50C-34%, 60C-54%, 66C-76%. and 70C-100%
Just another question, during gaming i leave hwinfo open in background. Should i care more about the max temp or the average temp of the cpu? Because the average is between 65 and 70 most of the times and the max is 80
the CPU doesn't stay at max temp for long because the fan curve will kick in and cool it down. just randomly check during gaming and if the 'current' temp is good then all is well
Yes during gaming i have msi afterburner osd and temp is most of the times between 65 and 70 and hovers here. This playing AC Origins

@lyninoamor: You can't buy these because the counter sunk does not use a normed angle. The thread is M3. So you need M3 screws.
@thattu: Yes it is but you have to remove the front USB.
@element72: Silver is in stock. If you need black you have to wait, because the current batch will be available in Aug/Sep. For the USB question check out the FAQ section on dan-cases.com
@beastmonkey The next batch is in production, but because of COVID-19 not available before Aug/Sep.

Thanks for your reply Dan! I will be happy to wait, I have already put in an order at Overclockers. You make great products, hope you are safe and doing well!
Someone has probably tried it, but I can tell you straight off that it wouldn't be sufficient. OptimumTech on Youtube has done it in the Ghost S1, which has a similar spacing for the GPU to the Dan A4. Yet he has a so called "top hat" for that specific case, to use an 240 rad in order to cool both the CPU and GPU. You don't have that flexibility with the Dan A4 unfortunately. It's just too small and were never designed for that purpose either.
