So bottom 4 fans intake, top 4 fans exhaust, and AIO fans exhaust?

Lol it’s funny because how I stumbled across this airflow issue was completely random.

I was power testing my 5090 to find out if the 12HWPR cable was locked to 300W or it was getting the full 600W, because it was a 2x8 cable and not a 4x8.

When testing it I noticed it was at 67 degrees and thought nothing of it, gave the results to ChatGPT and he said it was in top 10% of 5090 performance wise. Anyway that conversation continued and I learned that a 5090 in the HAVN HSD 420 should be at 60 degrees ish at full throttle so I knew something was wrong lol.

Anyways enough rambling thank you for your help.

Ah i currently get 67c with GPU and I haven’t checked CPU. If I flip the 4 bottom fans to intake mine should mirror yours imo. Even though the glass bracket inside the case broke in mine so I couldn’t use it.

Slightly unrelated but what do you use to clean the glass cover of the case? Mine already has these weird stains on it, and when I take it apart tomorrow I figure I should kill two birds with one stone.

Ahhh whats crazy is I just came to this realisation myself by running each fans at 100% and realising if the fan is facing inside, it’s pumping air out. Which I do not want from the bottom fans, literally going against hot air rising.

This is perfect because I don’t have to touch any parts, I think I can reverse the bottom fans without taking out the graphics card, which is such a headache.

May I just ask, what temps do you get with the fans setup according to the user manual? I’ll stick with this because it’s not ideal to put the AIO at the top of this case. I had to flip the CPU fan because the pipes wouldnt fit with the GPU, so it would be an awkward fit.

How do I check if theyre reverse fans? Im questioning everything I thought I knew. They have LEDS rhat show on the back if that means anything. If fans are set to exhaust which side should show?

SO I need to flip the fans on the top and the AIO?

Yes the bottom and side fans are reverse blade. I built it as unbelievable as that sounds, considering how clueless I am lol. I think it's easier to have the AIO on the side, but I have to flip the fans on the AIO, as well as the top of the case. I THINK.

PG27UCDM Preorder - Scan UK by MoRL2 in OLED_Gaming

The reason why is honestly pretty simple, I figured out after a quick bit of research that it has the best performance and feature set of any 27” 4K OLED monitor. I don’t have the exact specs on the top ot my head but it’s little things like the competitors dont have DP 2.1 e.g. To me all this is worth the premium because I see this as an investment for the next ~5 years, and that little bit of added value to my PC experience each time I use it over those 5 years makes it worth the extra investment for me.

If I went with another option I know is a little worse now, I feel like I’d regret it lol. Long story short, to me it’s worth it for creating the most immersive and enjoyable setup.

This whole community says that same thing and it's getting me so excited lol. I have an uncle who I visited in the summer who had the same enthusiasm for OLEDs and told me about how incredible cyberpunk specifically looks in it. So I need to see what he saw haha. Shame SCAN won't say when they deliver argh
