1 00:00:00,199 --> 00:00:07,919 when it comes to cooling down a PC many enthusiasts and Gamers want to make sure 2 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:12,040 that they've got some serious flow going on and no of course I'm not talking 3 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:19,720 about your questionable hairstyle but about airflow but unlike buying say uh 4 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:22,680 ceiling fan picking the biggest fastest 5 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:29,640 spinning computer fan you can find is not always the best solution don't get 6 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:32,800 me wrong fan sizes and RPMs how fast 7 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:35,480 they SP are important but an element of 8 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:41,440 fan design often overlooked by novice Builders is whether the fan is optimized 9 00:00:38,079 --> 00:00:44,120 for high air flow or high static 10 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:49,920 pressure but what does that mean I mean can't any fan provide decent air flow if 11 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:55,320 it spins fast enough well actually different fan blades are engineered to 12 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:58,079 move air in different ways fans marked 13 00:00:55,320 --> 00:01:04,479 High airflow have one objective in mind to move as much air as POS possible 14 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:06,520 through an open opening you might see 15 00:01:04,479 --> 00:01:12,280 the marketing for a high a flow fan focus on its CFM rating which stands for 16 00:01:09,479 --> 00:01:17,479 cubic feet per minute since a cubic foot is a measure of volume then this is 17 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:21,680 indicative of the actual amount of air that the fan can either intake or 18 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:25,119 exhaust or I mean if you think about it they're both going to be about the same 19 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:31,079 on the other side of the coin are high static pressure fans static pressure is 20 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:34,240 actually a concept in in fluid dynamics but don't worry too much you don't need 21 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:38,880 a degree in physics to understand how this relates to cooling down your rig 22 00:01:36,079 --> 00:01:45,560 simply put High static pressure fans are better at forcing air harder through 23 00:01:42,159 --> 00:01:48,640 small spaces they may not move the same 24 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:51,320 volume of air as a high air flow fan if 25 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:56,880 they were both in sitting on a desk with nothing to push through but they 26 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:59,399 typically blow air a little bit of air 27 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:04,399 more strongly so when exactly do you want to pick one over the other well as 28 00:02:02,079 --> 00:02:10,520 a general rule high air flow fans are better suited to be used as case fans PC 29 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:15,480 cases tend to be relatively open inside that is assuming you didn't cram a bunch 30 00:02:12,599 --> 00:02:20,480 of wiring into the front of it or like Snoopy or something meaning that being 31 00:02:18,239 --> 00:02:26,319 able to move lots of air at once can result in more effective cooling by 32 00:02:23,599 --> 00:02:31,599 contrast static pressure fans typically find their homes on things like heat 33 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:36,920 sinks or Cooling radiators cooling components like these often have lots of 34 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:42,800 metal fins that are used to increase the surface area of the device that needs to 35 00:02:39,599 --> 00:02:45,239 be cooled and to dissipate heat so to 36 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:50,040 cool off the heat sink properly air needs to move through these fins with a 37 00:02:47,519 --> 00:02:54,440 sufficient amount of force in this situation to make sure that the amount 38 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:59,599 of air moving through your heat sink is high enough you've got to have high 39 00:02:56,599 --> 00:03:01,680 static pressure but that doesn't mean 40 00:02:59,599 --> 00:03:06,519 that static pressure fans are a one-trick pony in fact they can often be 41 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:11,319 a good choice for chassis fans if you've got some kind of an obstruction that 42 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:16,799 might hinder airf flow otherwise for example many cases have hard drive cages 43 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:21,120 directly behind the front intake fan so in this situation a static pressure fan 44 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:26,040 can be more effective at getting the air through these small gaps they can also 45 00:03:23,799 --> 00:03:30,720 be useful if you have a case with very narrow vents on the front or a fan 46 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:35,799 filter that's designed to filter the dust out of the air but is of course 47 00:03:32,519 --> 00:03:38,319 going to obstruct airf flow since many 48 00:03:35,799 --> 00:03:42,959 radiators and CPU heat sinks come with fans pre-installed it's a good idea to 49 00:03:40,879 --> 00:03:47,080 ensure that they're high static pressure if you want to get the best performance 50 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:51,959 possible despite the fact that these fans are better for CPU cooling some 51 00:03:49,519 --> 00:03:56,840 manufacturers stick with whatever standard airflow focused fan for 52 00:03:54,760 --> 00:04:01,640 whatever reason to do your homework so you're getting the best performance 53 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:05,640 possible of of your new cooling solution after all there's nothing quite like the 54 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:10,280 feeling of seeing your temperature stay low after hours and hours of gaming that 55 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:15,440 is assuming you didn't build your computer into the side of an 56 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:22,680 igloo you got a whole other set of issues speaking of 57 00:04:18,759 --> 00:04:24,560 igloo brain tree their code for easy 58 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:28,520
