airflow

[clever void]

hey, I really like how the setup looks, but the airflow doesnt seem right. have you looked into it?\

[neat sandal]

Oh what’s wrong?

[clever void]

ok so you have 3 intakes in the front, 2 intakes up and 1 out

so, the airflow would be better if you intake in the front and out up

do you have a back fan

idk how to explain correctly but its like

you are making the air stuck with intake ujp and front

becuase the air is pushed down and to the side

you need a faster flow

[neat sandal]

It’s 3 intakes up

And yeah I have it in the back

[clever void]

no, the one up is out

and also

if you intake hot air from the aio to the pc, the gpu is not gonna get properly cooled

also, hot air tends to go up, so out take air on the top would be optimal

[neat sandal]

It should be going up

Should be coming in from the front and exiting the top

[clever void]

well the two fans on the top are intaking air

the other one isnt

ill make it clearer

[neat sandal]

Oh I see now,

So should the top 3 all be out?

[clever void]

just change the two ins from the top to out and youll be good

yes

[neat sandal]

Ok thanks

DAAAAAAAAMMNNNN

[neat sandal]

Thank youuu

Told you we had the same cpu cooler

[reef stag]

yeah it's beautiful, don't forget to customize the screen tho

[neat sandal]

True

[neat sandal]

yo how did you get icue working?

[reef stag]

plugged in the pump tach (small wire) into CPU fan, plugged in the larger cables (one goes to the Commander Core XT, and one goes to a USB header on the motherboard), and downloaded the iCue software

@neat sandal wasn't too hard at all

just make sure you are using both USBs, the one for the Commander and one for the AIO

[neat sandal]

I see and if it lights up but not registered then it wouldnt be plugged into the commander?

is the commander core the fan hub?

Yeah it is

[reef stag]

it will light up default colors, which is like a rainbow after it boots up

[neat sandal]

yeah thats what it did in the picture

but when I downloaded icue

nothings there!

[reef stag]

did you plug in the USB headers?

[neat sandal]

I think? Idk I'm not at my pc rn

[neat sandal]

but would that be the problem?

[reef stag]

sorry for the late response, it's because that's how it communicates with the PC to transfer data like what color it is and what product you have

[neat sandal]

I see I’m gonna open it
