Hey guys, I figured my 800D is lacking in airflow, especially around the GPU are if you have multiple cards. Since the bottom fan doesn't really line up with the GPU intake fan I'm thinking about adding some more fans for additional cooling so the GPU fans don't have to ramp up as high.
First though is to add another fan on the bottom, next to the one that came with the case. But that would require cutting a hole in the divider and might not fit with longer PSUs.
So instead, I'm thinking about adding 2x 120mm fans where the hot swappable hard drives are. If I removed the plastic shroud and mounted 2 fans there on a bracket, I think it would provide enough airflow since there's a 140mm fan blowing into the bays as well. What do you guys think?
I don't know of any way to mount those fans yet, but took a gander at this and was wondering if I could just bolt this into the bottom divider. What do you guys think?
