Air Cooled Gallery

[LedHed]

I beg to differ - there appears to be a white fan @ the front for intake

When did I say there wasn't? I was pointing out he has optical drives and hard drives blocking that fan and he is cutting off all other air that fan would take in the case by restricting the CPU cooler intake to that one fan. The exhaust makes sense, but not the intake.

Also you can see the duct stops way before the fan, probably because of the drives... (see all those half circles, no duct)


To make it more clear without the intake duct he still gets the air from the front intake, but he also gets air from the top, bottom and side of the fan. The exhaust duct is a good idea to keep from recirculating hot air after being blown through the CPU cooler.
