Should I Add More Fans to My PC?

Asked By CoolCat123 On

I recently built my first gaming PC after using a laptop for years. My setup includes a Ryzen 7 9800X3D and a 4080 Super, and I've been loving the experience so far! Currently, my CPU temperatures sit around 54-57°C during low usage and can spike to 68-74°C in more demanding games, with a peak of 79°C on one occasion. I'm using the Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 EVO cooler with an NZXT H7 Flow case that has three 120mm fans at the front and a Noctua NF-A12X25 PWM fan. I'm considering adding 3 more intake fans at the bottom and 3 exhaust fans at the top to cool things down a bit. However, I'm worried about potential turbulence or negative impacts on airflow for my CPU cooler. Will this change actually help lower my temperatures?

Honestly, your temperatures look pretty good already, so there might not be a need to add more fans. If you're just looking to lower them a bit, you're probably not solving any real issue here.

Yeah, I see your point. I just thought it would be fun to try for even lower temps, haha.
