@flawns That was not really the point of this, so I was not looking at temps at all. Just seeing how the air moved through the case. I had done it in the past on other cases. This was the first time I filmed it. Figured others would find it interesting. Cheap and easy way to make sure the fans are working together and not leaving any odd turbulence in the case.
@cbremer83 Oh yeah, I know what you are doing, and its obvious by the tittle "airflow test" I only asked because i have no clue if that vapor is cool to the touch
@flawns It is cold to the touch. Feels kinda like cold mist from a waterfall. Not sure how cold it is, but you can feel the temp drop when you touch it.
@pontus94 Looks pretty good. It's long gone though. I have a totally new build in the machine know. I'm on my second Sandy Bridge build now with an H50 with two Scythe fans. Getting a H100 at some point to try it out.
@bonn1771 Keep an eye out on my channel. I have rebuilt the machine, again, and will make a quick vid showing the upgrades. Lots of new goodies. It's a lot more machine than this video shows. A LOT more.
@herrjonna2007 Could it yes. But, I work for Microcenter, so if something got damaged I would just swap it for a new one and be good to go. Perk of the job. I have a second vid on my channel that has a change in the configuration. May be worth looking at if your interested.
@herrjonna2007 dry ice mist is pure CO2, its not a gas that will condense, dry ice is called dry ice because frozen CO2 goes straight from solid to gas (sublimation) it cant melt into liquid.
@H04RD3R He is actually right. In the seance that parts can get cold enough to condense the water vapor in the air. It's a very small chance, but it can happen. But I was not worried.
@gippula Thanks. I have since added a second OEM fan to the top and swapped the V8 for an H50. Swapped the Corsair fan with a much more powerful Scythe Slip Stream 1900 RPM fan. Have a second ready to set up push/pull on the rad. Video for the effects on air flow will come once I have the last of the parts and get the new SandyBridge board in.
@gippula A few reasons. First off I got it for $30 at work since it was returned with missing parts. Second, Not real crazy about really big air coolers. To heavy for me. And I have most the parts for a propper water cooling rig ready to go. Just trying to figure out the GPU. MSI 560 uses the 460 Hawk PCB. So, no full cover blocks for it yet. While I wait for that, I grabbed the H50 to play with it and got the part for free from my contact at Corsair.
@gippula Also swapping fans makes a huge difference on the H50. The stock fan can only push 50cfm. New one pushes 110cfm and I have a second waiting to get bolted on. It's fun playing with this stuff.
@KRAYSLiCK999 Thanks! I will make a new one in a bit. Got an H50 I'm going to test out and a second OEM fan for the top of th case. Also the vid I did here showed me a couple things I could tweak in the case to get better air to the GPU. The change already made a small drop in GPU temp. About 1 C less.
@gamerboy249 Make sure you get a nice fan controller. The fans are a tad noisy if running full bore. I prefer a controller over hooking to the motherboard. Once turned down, they still move a good amount of air but are pretty much silent. The fans on the NB ans SB now make more noise than the case. Get one and enjoy!
@gamerboy249 It's stock speed if you plug it into the power supply directly. It's it's stock max speed. Meaning a full 12V running through it. You can not make a fan go any faster than what it's designed to do. Unless you some how over volt it. Unless you have a fan controller to turn them down or plug them into the motherboard, they will always run at the max speed.
How did you make this effect?
Can I do this at home?
And do you see temp drops?

@TheRealLyricsGuy Just get some dry ice. Then add water.

@cbremer83 no problem, as i want to see my airflow once i get the 2nd 200mm fan for my case

but at the end, wouldn't the components get a little bit wet?
awesome Vid man :)

@cbremer83 hadnt thought of that, still a very low chance.

@H04RD3R it can be a liquid under the right conditions. but thats besides the point xD

Awesome video. I'v been thinking of doing this my self. Really good to know how the air really flows.

@cbremer83 Why the H50? We tested the H50 aginst the Noctua NH-C14 and the H50 lost with higher cpu temps. I have NH-D14 and it really beats H50.

@cbremer83 So, you're saying that the side fan is not running at stock speeds ?
