[QUOTE="Joutungwu, post: 1192834, member: 147600"] Silverstone calls the overpressure concept "positive air pressure design for excellent cooling/quietness and dust-prevention". In the manuals of the later Grandia models the concept is well explained by a shematic drawing and a table. For example, have a look at page 27 of this [URL='http://www.silverstonetek.com/downloads/Manual/case/Multi-GD09-Manual.pdf']manual[/URL]. Assimilating that table for [URL='http://www.lian-li.com/en/dt_portfolio/pc-c60/']Lian-Li PC-C60[/URL]: [LIST] [*]Right side fan, rear: CPU and components around CPU socket [*]Right side fan, front: Optical disc drives and CPU [*]Left side fan: Hard drives and graphics card [*]Top fan: Assist in exhausting air [/LIST] Right now i saw the recommended [URL='http://www.lian-li.com/en/files/2012/12/PC-C60-02.png']airflow picture from Lian Li for your case[/URL] and it shows indeed your current configuration without the top fan. But i think it's inconsistent about the PSU orientation, or it means that it doesn't matter, if the PSU is separated or integrated in the overall airflow of the system. In any case, the shown exhaust arrows of the PSU fan position (left side, rear) are wrong, because ATX PSUs always have intake fans at the "bottom" side. Quite confusing and obviously a mistake. :confused: If you choose to try out the Silverstone concept, i recommend airflow separation of the PSU or it will break the concept of "positive air pressure". Beside that, you would have to invert the left side case fan and the GPU fan. If you change these three things, you won't have fans working directly against opposite fans anymore. Maybe this will reduce overall temperatures. I would like to know, which airflow concept wins: Silverstone or Lian Li. :cool::) [/QUOTE]
