My CM690 has provision for an 80mm fan right behind the CPU socket area:
A few questions:
-Will a fan there make a significant difference?
-Which direction should it blow? (there's no air-filter there so I'm assuming it blows outside the case, although illustrated otherwise)
-Does a fan pose EMI to the CPU/VRM?
Your thoughts please.
