So, I’m looking at this particular cabinet here.
The idea is to strip everything out of the PC case and relocate all the components onto the top shelf of this unit, while keeping the router and all the cabling tucked away on the bottom shelf.
My main concern is thermal management. Do you think one 120mm intake fan on the side and one 120mm exhaust fan at the back would provide enough airflow?
From what I’ve gathered through some digging online, people have pulled off similar setups with decent results, but I was wondering if anyone here has tried something like this locally? 🙂 Since the cabinet will be fully enclosed, it'll essentially function as my computer chassis, powered by just those two fans.
Here are the specs:
AMD A8-5600K
LC-CC-95 cooler
ASRock FM2A75M-DGS
2x4 GB Kingston HyperX 1600 MHz RAM
Radeon R7 250 1GB DDR5
500 GB HDD + 120 GB SSD
Chieftec GPS 450 AA
