How about what gigabyte fucked up in the 10th series g1 gaming cards? I know for sure that 1070 has a fan issues like mine rx 480 which results in 1 fan sounding like rotor when first starting,also the insane temps on the rx 480 even after the bios update.I really wish I could make something about that cuz that card can't even hold the advertised clock on the box,it's always going up and down but never stable even on 72-3 C

Hi Jay, basic subject I've been meaning to suggest - what kind of temperatures we should be seeing inside of a water cooling loop - when we have a single pump and res config for say - 1 CPU and 2 GPUs (1080 GTX?). What would be the ones we'd expect coming out of the rads, after it comes out of the GPU blocks, CPU block, etc. An overall overview of water temps in the system.

If we put the unlikely posibility of a pressure issue(dust entering without passing filter) aside, your system overall will likely benefit from this way of mounting the PSU. Here is why; If the fan facing down is the normal way, then the electronics that produce heat inside the PSU will be mounted on the side facing up into the cabinet. The heat will then travel up, away from the fan, potentially get trapped between the electronics and the metal plate and heat it up. By mounting it with the fan facing up, the heat will travel up towards the fan and heat said metal plate less, in addition the previously warmer plate now face outwards against the cool air under the cabinet. All in all I don't think it will make a noticeable difference and either way of mounting it is fine. Exception for the water cooled systems.

What we need : affordable 80plus Gold or Platinum power supply What we got : 80 bronze "GAMING" power supply with RGB fans.

I'd be interested in finding out just how much of that PSU exhaust loops back into the intake in the down configuration, as you suggested. I think the chassis exhaust fan above it should help keep that air on an aft trajectory. Plus, exhaust tends to be more directional than intake.

Very helpful dude. I have installed fan down all the time. This gives me an argument for upward.

Wow! This is perfect! I have a carpet but don't have much room to put it anywhere. My first power supply burned out due to dirt and dust intake from the bottom cent, because I didn't realize it sucked in at the time, so this would help with that. After the first one burnt out, I managed to squeeze a table in, but now that I know this I might think about doing this!

Hey Jay. Could you please do a video about PCI-E Overclocking with a couple of facts, benchmarks and risks? Theres pretty much no information on the internet about that topic and id like to know if you can gain performance from that. Best regards

As long as you can put a dust filter on the fan itself, then yeah, I'm with you. Just be careful doing any maintenance with the tower standing, because screws can fall into your PSU and it's a pain in the butt to get out. XD

JAY Hope you're doing ok my man!! Thank you for all the best content I wish you the best in your recovery brother!!! This power supply video was really useful for today's build :D Thank you!!

@MineThing

When the PSU is sucking air in from below and letting it push itself out the back, there is still a suction pressure from beneath that will make even the hot air go down. You are correct that hot air rises in cold air, however, the rate at which this happens is far slower than you may expect, especially when we are talking only a few degrees difference.

Thank you for this video, was googling and researching on PSU exhaust placement, very helpful :)

Thank you very much. I had just seen another build and I was asking why he installed with the fan on top.

Nice something to watch before going to bed

I tried both configurations, i wanted to see if the psu up inlet would improve air flow and draw more hot air away from the gpu, yes it would heat up the psu and have a de rating affect but the psu is oversized so this wouldn't be an issue. The result was the exact same gpu temp in both configurations which was surprising since you would think this would assist the gpu exhaust. So i left is in the down inlet standard config.

Please tell me you were referencing Def Leppard with pour some sugar on me? Also, what many people forget with PSU fan up or down is that it was only relatively recently that case manufacturers put the PSU on the bottom, and the top mounted PSU's were almost always mounted with the fan facing to the inside of the case, and if it didn't negatively affect airflow or temperatures with less efficient PSU's then, why would it affect them now? I've run PSU's in both fan up and fan down orientation, and my takeaway from that is that I prefer fan facing up because it minimises dust intake to the PSU which extends it's lifespan, and it also looks better with the fan grill facing up.

I built my first PC a year ago, and now I'm building an office computer. JayzTwoCents has been my "go to" for PC build questions.

I had to flip my psu to fix some squeaking issue with my psu fan and I was wondering it was a bad idea but now I am no longer worrying, thanks!

We're supposed to mount the power supply, i usually just let it hang at the top of my case

🎶Def Leppard - pour some sugar on me! 🎶 Absolute Classic! 💿✌👍

After a few reboots because of the rectifier side overheating I figured the dust filter is better gone (those fans lose like half of their actual power when the filter is present, so better just vacuum-clean the PSU from time to time). Also whenever the intake is facing down, swapping out the standard legs with somewhat longer ones allows to greatly improve the airflow and reduce the amount of dust that reaches the board.

Thank you for making this video. Your videos are really useful to computer builder enthusiasts like me.

I've always wondered why more water coolers don't use non conductive liquids, like the XSPC XS-EC6-CL Non Conductive Coolant. Is it less efficent than distilled water? I think a test is in order Jay. Whilst you are at it, what actually happens if this stuff spills on your motherboard, or your PSU?

Thanks for this video. I am building a budget rig around a 6600K and bought an old C70 case secondhand, which I freaking love the look of. I was installing the PSU (EVGA 650 GA, also secondhand) last night and having this debate internally. I settled on fan up orientation for now but may give it further consideration.

You should do a video about the basics involving the CPU, PCIE slot numbers, PCIE 1, 2 & 3.0, and how your GPU, CPU and PCIE slots all work together.

Noise is a factor too, esp. in a very quiet system. Having the fan inside the case, it has no noise direct escape path. Even if it has to work a bit harder, it is quieter. Also the fans are more effective blowing down than blowing up (where the gravity and the push work against the seal holding the blades)

@@paulmartin2348 There are new fans that blow in the opposite direction so they work OK blowing up. But the mechanics of the fans are such that it is much more effective (and thus quieter) when blowing down, against the gravity. If the fan blows up, it is resting on the O-ring that holds the spindle. Plus the air pressure. The convection is not a factor in a case, there is far too much of air movement inside. The fans can easily overmatch the convection.

Thanks for this video. While I have been around PCs since the dawn of time (Tandy TRS-80, Commodore PET, Apple II), and I have built a few PCs in my time, I have never seen anything about mounting a power supply with the fan down before. Given that all of the printing on the exterior of my power supply’s would only be upright wi the the fan up, I thought that was the only way to mount it. My current case has the grate on the bottom so I mounted my PSU “upside down” and at least I know that it won’t hurt anything.

and what if the psu never turns on? like my super flower 80plus gold with its eco mode...

Just a warning.. I mounted mine with the fan faced up since my PC sits on a carpet, and while mounting the backplate of an AIO cooler, a washer fell into the crevice between the motherboard and case, then landed in the power supply. I didn't realize this until it was too late. After testing my PC for a bit it was fine. I brought it upstairs to my normal spot, flicked the switch then hit the power button, and was then greeted with a nice gunshot sound paired with a white flash as soon as I hit the power button... Though it was my own stupidity in running the PSU without finding the missing washer... I'm never mounting my PSU with the fan faced up again. I ran into this video shortly after it happened so I don't know if the components are okay yet. :/

@@computethis7128 Mine hasn't leaked, so I can't really say whether it's worth it or not.. But so far it seems worth it for how beautiful it looks and for how well it performs. There really isn't any maintainence to be done since the liquid inside is never exposed to anything.. though I don't know for certain if it would ever need to be done.

@@evieamity7471 what about corrosion of the pipe over time from the flow of water? And which aio do you reccomend?

It's been a long time since I've done builds for others but I used to put the power supply in "fan up" orientation for this exact same reason (carpet choking). So thanks for the reminder. I don't really agree about the power supply recycling air being much of an issue, but it certainly could be if the rear of the PC was tightly enclosed under/in a desk. For my own PCs I mount it down so crap doesn't collect/fall into the PSU when it's off (which is most of the time) and so the PSU can get it's own fresh air with my setups.

You nailed it Jayz.

No no no, you are an expert user, I am an advanced user. I've watched a few of your videos over time and your expert views help sway my builds. Keep it up, subbed.

exactly the information i came looking for, thanks.

Mounted the PSU up. Just got a new M2 NVME which I tried to install. Dropped the M2 screw down in the PSU. Didn't want to open the PSU. But the screw got stuck inside the PSU. Took forever to get it out. Had to unscrew the PSU and flip it upside down and shake it for a long time. I remounted the PSU down now. And will do it going forward.

Lay PC down if you doing work. I have 3x A12x25s at front. Air only in via filtered front. Air out via rear fan, GPU vent and PSU. Every other hole, no matter how small taped up, even PCI slot cover holes. PSU fan is hybrid and never needs to come on. The positive pressure from front fans is huge and is almost enough to blow lighter flame out if placed near psu vent. Front fans dialed in with noctua fan controller. Highest speed without being audible in dead of night. GPU is always 'actively' cooled via the flow too. Clean case, silent, cool.

Lucky it was just a screw, if the P/S was the right way up passive air flow would do the work, cooler air falling as warm rises ...

Same happened to me. That's why I'm watching this video 🤣🤣🤣

Nice video

Very very helpful and informational. Thank you!

I had carpet when I lived in an apartment for college. I bought some whiteboard wood and had it cut at home depot for roughly 10$. Placed this under my PC to provide some space for air flow and also had left over whiteboard to mount on my wall for "normal" whiteboard uses.

I think it's simple. Having the cooler upwards, means pulling warm air into the psu. Probably the temperature inside the case decreases, but the PSU cooler is not for cooling the inside of the pc. It needs fresh air and it can get fresh air only from the downside. That's why mostly every case has an opening for the psu cooler at the bottom. Now tell me I'm wrong?

Had discussions with friends about this before. My solution was flipping the top mounted fan inside it. So it would push not pull. What are your thoughts on that?

I’m wanting to reverse the fan to pull air in through the power supply. Might sound silly at first but I have a small outdoor ac unit that pipes cool air into my studio and the air hose comes right into the back of the cabinet which I want to put my new thread ripper pro build. If the power supply were to pull air IN instead of exhaust it would directly pull in the cool air from the hose and direct it upward onto the gpu ram mobo ect. Then get vented out with the upper back exhaust fan. It would reduce the internal temp about 15-25 degrees if I could just reverse the PSU fan flow. Asus Thor 1200 platinum. Any helpful ideas?

You could open up the power supply and just flip the fan around, if you are comfortable with losing the warranty
