Is my computer system airflow up to the standard?
Hi guys, the specs of my computer is as follows:
AMD Phenom II X3 710 (stock HSF)
Gigabyte AMD770 mobo
XFX Radeon 5770 (stock HSF)
WD 500GB 7200rpm SATA HDD
Benq DVDRW drive
Now, my casing comes with a 80mm rear exhaust fan and a side panel air duct (without fan). The duct is directing towards the area slightly below the CPU. There's no vents and front fan at the front panel (which sucks). Also, I'll have a new PSU which comes with a 120mm fan, will that help with the suction of hot air of the system?
With this casing configuration, do you guys think my system will have above average cooling?
If not, do you suggest to take down the air duct, and install a fan at the side panel which brings outside air in? Or should I install the inlet fan together with the air duct at the side panel?
Thousand thanks!
It's fine as long as you aren't doing any overclocking.
