Well, that is just how I do it at my place. Other guys do use other formats (if they want). But, considering I have reviewed so many of these big heatpipe coolers in the past year (with two more on the horizon), it has made things easier.
When you do it in a case... Case fans on or off? Side panel on or off? Tower or desktop case? PSU with how many fans? These are issues I prefer to just avoid.
You put a cooler with a 120mm fan pointing to the back of a case with a 120mm exhaust fan and your bound to see better things than in a case with a 80mm rear fan... Or perhaps in a case where the cooler needs to point at the psu... 120mm PSU fan versus no PSU fan... big difference. So, with so many cases, PSUs, and motherboards out there, I just prefer to eliminate them all from the equation. |
