Hello Community,
I wish to install a 140mm fan in my BOLT3 on the avaialable mount behind the MOBO. Has any one done this yet, and if so should it be a Push or Pull flow? Currenlty the bolt Pulls air in FAN>COILS>CASE (Corsair H100 LC) The GTX970 pushes out the back, I tink the PSE pushes out as well, not sure. THus my question, im not sure which is better. Familiarity with the BOLT 3 case a plus. My current temps peak for the CPU (6700) at around 60 (LC) My GPU peak no higher thank 80 (NonLC) Edited by smilbuta - 29 Sep 2017 at 6:03am |

I don't have the Bolt 3, but my understanding is that the right side fan mount was more to blow onto the drives to control temps than anything else. I don't think it would do much for the cpu/gpu temps because of the separation.
Hopefully someone with the Bolt will chime in and give their thoughts.  |
