Scratch Build – In Progress Airflow, 23th September

I started building a new case. Had this idea for a while after buying the Silverstone raven 2 which inspired me . Cooling performance was great but I had a plan to do better with separating the individual parts . I'm going to push a lot of air from the bottom with 6 140 mm fans and divert it up and push it again with 2 200mm fans . The mainboard is going to kinda flow in the middle of the motherboard case part and then suck the hot air all out with 2 more 200mm fans on top for best performance which is my theorie because it's a continuing vacuum effect and all straight up like a chimney lol. Oh and sorry for my English grammar still taking ESL classes should get better soon greetings from the us

 

Cut all the bottom pieces today. Redone my sketches and put marks on cut out parts tomorrow time for them circle cutouts and hopefully I can start assembling so I can put some of my parts in. Still need to buy fans . Money ain't long lol. Hope you can picture my idea soon .

 

Hi,

If i well understood, you'll place Fan like that (red lines)?




Be carefull to leave enought space between fans and deflector (green lines), otherwise you'll get a problem.

 

deflector

Hey thanks for replying. No I will put the fans on the outside because the sketching are just for the simple "frame" main case . Still trying to think about an actual design I hope you know what I'm trying to say. I'm trying to make it all smooth looking and not boxy .

Love the questions and suggestions

Thanks already to everybody

Picture update today or tomorrow promise

 

Got some work done it's going well.

DREMEL IT!

One question, Green flow and Red flows are iquals in terms of debit (m3 per hour)? Otherwise I thing the stronger flow will be reduced by the less strong. That will produce more noise than if you have only Green or Red flow and could revelate counterproductive..

Just a question... anyway..

 

Wish I would be rich so I can buy all i need right now

Did not get much done the last days weather sucks here on the east coast, need more wood but snow won't let me get it. Anyways I put the parts in just to see if theorie is going to work. I didn't do any temperature test with the old case but I know it was hot even woth the side panel open. As you can see on pics it's pushing already a good amount of air and with the diverting piece and all the fans and being a closed case I'm pretty sure I'm getting nice cool temperatures. Gonna run some test like that so I have a base. Of course it's going to look much better lol

I research a lot about airflow. Just so everything works the way I pictured it. Uhmmm yeah they all going to be the same or better I try to keep them the same. All of the fans going to be connected to a fam controller. Which I hope I can avoid loosing airflow. And I also will just install silent fans cpu is going to be water cooled and graphics card is in planing to but depends on the money. So I don't need and want noisy fans. That's why I'm building this case in that style.

thanks for suggestions and question .
First scratch build still learning

 

Had some time again. Got the diffuser in starting to look what I have pictured.
