outside the case for benching versus inside the case for benching is going to show an upward trend of temps.

i have a great case that provides above average ventilation...i have 120mm front input fan and two 120mm rear exhaust fans...if you count the 120 on the PSU then it is three, although that fan is a low volume fan.
