Lets see, no top fan mounts, solid plastic front bezel with 1/2 inch small hole mesh on its sides, no bottom fan mount. Where the hell is the airflow supposed to go? around the outside?
So close.
You just need more airflow.
Don't be the H510.
:),
Liquid Cool
It's a cheap case that should be in the €30-50 range. Nothing wrong with that, and there's a strong market for cases of this type at that price point. At €70 almost anything else is better than this though - more flexibility and more importantly more cooling.
Experienced that with my Define 7, glad it came with the optional vented top panel. Now i run 3 top exhaust, 2 front intake and 1 rear intake.
(Rear Intake due to Noctua NH-C14S, actually works better in terms of temps)
Works surprisingly well considering the case fan speed and the TDP of my components, and it's silent. Mesh front does wonders -- and that's where the real letdown of this case comes in. The terrible airflow in the front.
I found their name in the online registry of computer terms.....
Synonym for: assorted cheap, fuggly, no-design-effort-whatsoever, bottom-of-the-barrel p.o.s stuff, hehehehe ..:eek:.:cry:.:laugh:
4770K @ 4,5GHz (1.19v), Noctua NH-C14S Push/Pull (max 650 RPM), Gaming Temp tops out at 65C.
GTX 1070 +125/+500, Arctic Accelero Xtreme III (3x Noctua NF-A9, max 750 RPM), Gaming Temp tops out at 50C.
Fractal Define 7, 6x Noctua NF-S12A (max 570 RPM) 3 out, 3 in.
So i'm getting the same temps at probably one third of the noise you have.
n.O.t......
I've been puttin pc's together for over 30+ years, and slingin shade at them there Antec clowns for almost that long, cause I have yet to see them actually produce anything that doesn't fit the description I put in my other post :)
Don't get me wrong, I love to buy/use parts that don't cost me an arm & a leg just like anyone else, but not when it comes as a direct result of low p.o.s. build quality, short term durability, reliability, or longevity....
Done, peace out...:respect::p:clap:
