Working from home is awesome, working from bed is not. And people wonder why they have trouble falling asleep...

Hi! I currently have this build using the GT502 case.

I just recently got 3 more case fans. Previously it was set up like this:

I think that for some reason the temps got worse and the PC much louder. It might just be buyer's remorse but I got more fans so that they could use less RPM and be quieter, but I feel like the complete opposite has happened.

Can I change anything about this layout to optimise airflow? I was thinking of maybe switching the side panel fans to exhaust? That might starve the CPU cooler, though...

Maybe I'm just imagining things and I just need to perform exact tests to figure it out. What do you use for testing airflow effectiveness?

UPDATE:
The issue was weirder than I would've thought. The bottom 3 fans are controlled by one motherboard channel using a PWM splitter cable. The rear and side panel fans are the same - one channel for all 3. Previously I had just the rear exhaust plugged in to a single channel but now it's plugged into the splitter.

Apparently the order of the fans in the splitter is VERY important. I changed it so that the rear fan is the first in the splitter and that instantly fixed the issue. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That just means we have to get rid of 58 million Americans to balance it out!

We take folk dancing very seriously. There are A LOT of folk dance ensembles and they vary from random hobbyist groups to company-sponsored groups of 80+ dancers. There are lots of competitions, drama and every 5 years - a huge concert where most ensembles participate and perform in a stadium. One dance can contain up to 1000 dancers at the same time.

During this year's final dance the spectators mentioned that they could feel the ground shaking.

Love how rock climbing has some of the safest, most thoroughly tested gear in sports, but it always looks dangerous and that attacts all the "these guys are all idiots", "darwin award" and "i would probably die" people.

I eat bell peppers like apples. Just wash it and eat it, no cutting required.

I don't have answers but I love this one. They're usually pretty dumb, like a wrench on a motherboard or something. This one is actually funny with no intent on being serious.

So weird randomly seeing the name of my home city.

There's always been some craziness but I feel like it's growing more crazy every month. One of the superpowers started a war it can't win, the other 2 are slowly going into a cold war, the climate is becoming more and more unpredictable and there's always some kind of disease lurking around the corner. At the same time there's some cool progress in technology and science (and even that comes with its own issues).

To be fair, drinks with ice in them are still miles easier to drink with a straw.
