Recommended placement for the HD160 Plus |
| |
| |
Placement of this system in a well-ventilated area (good intake of cool air and release of hot air) allows efficient cooling of computer components even in low RPM mode, for ultra quiet operation. The noise level of the power supply (main factor of noise emission) will also significantly decrease due to better cooling efficiency.
There must be good front to back airflow when placing the HD160 Plus in cabinets. When the Top Panels vent is opened, placement of other devices above the HD160 Plus can hinder CPU cooling performance.
|
| |
|
 |
Management of the system's internal cables |
| |
| |
The internal airflow of the system makes a significant impact on the cooling of the computer components. Even though the design of the enclosure itself is very important, organized management of internal cables is the best method for optimizing internal airflow. Pay special attention to make sure that the air vents and intake/exhaust fans are not blocked by the cables. |
