Lately I have been noticing that my computer seems to be getting even hotter than it used to. This is just not going to do and I will be needing to buy fans to cool it down...DUH!!! my question is is it possible to put four fans in one system? I want to run two fans to exhaust the hot air while the other two will blow cold air in...a sort of aircondtioning. HELP!!! thanx.
yes it is possible to use 4 fans in a system, many people do your psu may already act like one exhuast fan tho your psu might or might not have enough molex connecters, check and see its getting into summer as well so stuff gets hotter now as well as themal paste might be flaking or heatsink not sitting properly but if your computer has rised by a few degrees that doesnt really matter unless its unstable or you are trying to reach a bigger clock 4* 80mm fans will add alot of noise 2*120MM fans will be reasonaly quiet
thanx man. i hear u. n like i think also my system is a bit older now aswell so like its starting to lag on a bit and also i havnt serviced it properly in ages. lots of stuff to do in no time..lol. n good on the heads up wit the noise.
Try taking an air duster to your existing fans, they could be clogged up with Dust as a PC should keep at the same temperature roughly no matter how old (excluding changing air temperature) if you keep it in good enough condition.
go to radioshack, they have lot more fans at a cheaper price. Not to mention the convience for modding.
Ive heard alot about radio shack from the forums but the problem is i live in south africa so modding here is quite a dying breed so to speak. the resources here for modding are so limited that its scary and the prices tro get a single piece of equipment is also outrageous. a dremel here can cost between R500 and R2000 (divide that by seven to get it in dollars). its crazy. so if anyone out there who lives in south africa knows of places that are cheap and easy to find let me know. Thanx.
