Hi,
It would need to be stainless steel or copper or brass
Sadly to cut costs some use cheap tin and coat it with nickel or something so they can say all parts are not corrosive, yeah I'm looking at you ek lol their old fittings from like 4 years ago are/ were shit not completely nickel plated and had bare spots inside them so they corroded.

They finally started making fittings out of brass and nickel/... plating them
But they always hid behind use premix fluids and don't mix metals but they already mix metals for you.

Just looked, the filter is fine stainless steel wire mesh. Being Aquacomputer it should be good quality.

I had a EK nickel block a while ago before this supremacy classic and imo the nickel coating was babba, After this one it will be copper only if possible as i think it looks better anyway.

Got some new Adata Gammix 3200C16 sticks for my kids computer yesterday so I could go back to my 4x8 configuration

And I changed up my air config a little bit..

Sometimes pictures just don't do any justice

I guess I could have put some fresh stuff on instead of re-using what I cut off :laugh:

Hi,
Maybe black it goes with everything

Amazon.com : black duct tape

Why is the top fan as an intake :confused:

Because if it would be exhaust it will steal the air from the CPU fan?

But even I as a dumb guy know that that's against how thermal physics work as hot air rises up :confused:

The CPU fan has air directly from the fan opposite it. I figured maybe extra cool external air in top and front and into CPU fan, but maybe a rear fan to suck it out of the case might help

Hi,
Know your posters

This guy also overclocks memory and this is the second thing the top/ intake fan is doing, blowing cooler room air on those memory sticks
First perk is notice where it's positioned it's in front of the cpu air cooler and thus feeding it with cooler room air

As far as heat rises well that is true but the front case fans blow air through the case and out the back not redirection forces needed from the top as exhaust.

Which is a brilliant way to cool to birds with a single fan :respect:

freeagent · Apr 28, 2022

If hot air rises in your case, you aren’t moving enough air

It’s mainly for my memory but it does help with the CPU too :cool:

ThaiTaffy · Apr 28, 2022

Bears s**t in the woods, water follows gravity and hot air rises. But you can cage a bear, pump water where you want and blow air in any direction you like with a fan.

freeagent · Apr 28, 2022

529cfm intake and 267cfm hanging on the cooler, no redirection needed

Ruru · Apr 28, 2022

Well, who am I to judge

just more cleaning then.

Hi,
Cleaning filters is normal maintenance
And yes the top of every case has a filter same as the front I wonder why that is :confused:

Dust does follow the laws of gravity and if your system is off dust tends to accumulate on top but your logic is also true.

Ever wondered why they're called dust filters?

Hi,
Well by your logic the "dust filter" is to catch dust from "Inside the case" little harder to clean imho :laugh:

Maybe a new thread of dust/ gravity and filters should be made we stressed off topic

ThaiTaffy · Apr 28, 2022

Since I'm here I might as well post something on topic. Finally managed my first test fit it's only been an idea in my head for about 6months.

Still need to finish the fan housings and controller, dust filters and some sort of housing for the network switches. Oh and paint it all aswell as fit led strips to the rest of the treads.

Oh and get round to buying a CPU for my Nas or upgrade my 3600x and throw that in the nas.

RGB stairs, have that gamers!!!

I don’t use filters. I change my furnace filter, sweep the floor, dust the furniture.. no real problems with dust. Sure it does build up, but it’s not horrible. Plus I have a Metro Datavac.. dust does not concern me

My upstairs rig on the other hand.. it flows maybe a third of the air mine does, and that thing gets dusty. Again, no filters on that one either..

Hi,
If anything I better my filters the screen alone is pretty lame
I'm using additional speaker cloth which catches micro dust not just the bunnies
I do the same on the front just vac them when needed.

I also cut the metal grid off the top of the case for less restriction

Yes I need some black tape too :laugh:
