I didnt consider that and I believe this wouldnt be benefitial:- The CPU has the same problem with positive pressure and Noctua seems to think that it would be a bad Idea to reverse the air flow. The fans are designed in a way that prevents an easy reverse of the fan on the CPU cooler. It can be done, but that would require longer screws.- The GPU currently gets fresh air, reversing that would mean at least somewhat warmer air from inside the case.- I dont want to modify the hardwareCPU & Chassis fans generate quite some noise when the CPU is under full load.Instead of multiple NF-A9x14 for case fans, I now intend to put a single NF-S12A in the upper front.Those are volume optimized for cases instead of pressure optimized -> Double flow rate for a fraction of the noise.Unfortunately, the chromax version is sold out everywhere until august.
