Poor Radiator / Fan Layout

I was hoping a layout like this was going to be an isolated incident but unfortunately a design and implementation of the below diagram has come up twice this week... this design has a few issues but I'll deal with the radiators and fans today...

More air less crashes?

I'm still suffering from random power-offs... I've tried so many things to resolve my problem but nothing has done the trick... I've been running my PC without the side door for a while now. I know I get lower temps with the side door on so I thought I better put it back on... here's a pic of it... it has two 120mm fans mounted to it; one blows over the voltage regulators, CPU and RAM, while the other is angled up to blow on the graphics card. My current theory on why my PC crashes is that the graphics card's RAM is getting too hot which is causing the machine to turn off.

New stock on it's way

Im very excited because im getting more stock in, with a greater selection .. I should  have pre orders up on my web site in a about a week.

Thanks for the constructive criticism . i'll be making /made some changes to address your concerns

Voltage regulators and heat (part 2)

Im 100% sure my PC was crashing cause my VRs were getting to hot. My motherboard didn't have any kind of cooling on the VRs, as it was the cheaper motherboard. So i just used some thermal epoxy and glued some small heat sinks on. I was going to water cool the Vrs but it was going to cost ½ the price of a new motherboard so it just wasn’t worth it.

 

 

TEC Terms

TEC Terms has been added to give people a better understanding of terms like Qmax dTmax and the like.

Price drop

Some of water cooling products have been reduced in price .. happy water cooling boys and girls .. i'd like to say i hardly make any money on this stuff im just trying to reduce the cost for everyone.

Barbs at the top or bottom ?

i've written this because this debate seems to be the latest craze:

This should give you an idea of the layout im planning, though the fans will be sucking not blowing.
