    Things turned out not be quite so rosy in the Core V1. I was still managing to hit 50C mobo temp on occasion, sending the case fan into overdrive. And since mobo cooling was relying on air movement driven by the CPU fan, mobo temps actually rose initially when the load dropped, because the CPU...

    All the reviews I have seen - and my own experience - say you need to reverse that fan. Here is one that shows a 15C difference on the CPU just from reversing the airflow (no change to the GPU). http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/cases/2015/01/14/raijintek-metis-review/3 Maybe 74C is...

I ended up with the rear fan as an intake and a 212 EVO to get CPU temps under control, but the more air I pushed through the CPU cooler, the less cooling the motherboard got, which made the fan spin too fast and loud. I was getting better mobo temps with a TX3...
