I need new fans

[Rob_the_scot]

I have my itx e350 system in side case my matx case for a short term till I get my gaming system tweaked any way at first I was running a 80mm antec tri fan on the rear and the temps in side the case sit about 55.50C some times it can go upto about 57C so I fitted the case with the stock fans sharkoon leds 120mm as intakes and the temps stayed the same.

My 80mm antec fan shifts more air the the sh*tty stock fans :/

can you guys recommend a few brands that would be better I need 3x120 and 1x92mm

fans I have been looking at are

Artics

Noctua

xilence

sythe

Reviews of the 92mm noctua seem to be pretty negative compared to cheaper brands but the review is out of date by a few years maybe times have changed...I need performance its not the first time my pc has been on for 12hours+

What mATX case is it?

its a sharkoon ms120....really nice case build wise....takes 2x120mm front intake fans, 1x120mm bottom intake fan rear 92/80mm fan and top mounted psu.

In side the system at the moment Im using a e350 itx mobo by gigabyte and a sff psu and 1x2.5hdd...

120mm fans are garbage

Is there any way to mount a fan on the side panel so that it blows onto the motherboard?

There is a meshed area but directly across the the gpu....to give you an idea how poor the fans are they can't shift a piece of paper lol

I'm just thinking that maybe the air is being pulled straight through the side panel out through the back, and not across the board from the front. As an experiment have you tried blocking the side vent to see if it might force air to be drawn from the front of the case instead and you might get a bit more air flow over the board?

Ye have done dude....The 80mm fan is doing its job perfectly you can feel the air being Pulled out the case....iv checked the case made sure there was nothing blocking the 2 larger fans, Or any air escaping that shouldn't ......I swear the 2 larger fans are ultimate trash...

I really want to put my gaming system in and post up some pics amazing case just let down by shitty fans

Akasa Apache 120mm at 1300rpm is shifting a lot of air.Scythe GT are also good.The new noctua NF-F12 tom is using on the H100.

thought Id put a small update...On my case I had front bezel > fan > metal mesh so I carefully cut away the metal mesh refitted the fans and the temp in my case temps dropped down to about 51C some times it goes upto 54c.

Once I replace the fans I should see a better temps.

Been looking at the Akasa Apaches seem to pick them up for a decent price...just leaves the 92mm rear

i suggest the 92 mm be quiet ( silent and good air displacement

)

ime quite sure they have em in 92 mm
