Air 240 cooling

repillows · Mar 27, 2015

I'm going to build a gaming PC based off of the one corsair made here.

http://www.corsair.com/en-us/blog/2014/september/how_to_air_240

They did push pull with an h100i but I'm using the H100i gtx. The problem is when the fans are blowing the warm air out of the rad, it is surrounding the GPU and the GPU im using is the 980 with the blower. Despite the rads blowing the warm air on the GPUs, will it be ok because Corsair made the build

Just remove the fans and turn them over so it blows out of the case rather than into it

Good thinking.

What a novel idea .. dump heated air outside rather than inside of case. :pimp:

Cool! I just bought an Air 240, 16GB of Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz RAM, an EVGA GTX 970 SC, and a Corsair Hydro H105. The H105 should be arriving today, and I'll be trying to set it up in a push/pull configuration, if I can manage to fit that in the case.
