Hey iv been planning my 2nd Ryzen build an have been looking for case that fits my Arctic Freezer II 420mm AIO in the intake position as my home has a bad dust issue
(stucco paint flack from ceiling ) as with my previous build with the 120mm ver aio cleaning is an issue an not having to open the case 3 to 4 times a month is a biggy on my current build the
120mm is at the back in the pull config with a semi thick mesh filter between the rad an case , an the front as intake also with semi thick mesh filter
this has been the best layout that has kept the pc cool an the need to open an clean has been just every 6 months just fyi the front intake with semi thick mesh filter was fine for the gpu air flow but
did effect the aio when it was in push by a diff of 14 - 17 deg at idle an load on avg with the aio fan always ramping up more often with current config - 14 - 17 deg
my long winded ? is this
with the Cooler Master HAF 700 & Arctic Freezer II 420mm mounted in side in the pull config an the rear as intake an have the top , bottom , an front as exhaust would this work as a Negative pressure build or would i be better off with the 7000d ?
