Description

I was recently asked on my original Lian Li Vision Compact build whether it made sense to have 6 intake fans and 2 exhaust fans or is some other logic better. So in this video I'm exploring what I've done with the Vision Compact and my main PC build and how having 9 intake fans in it with 2 exhaust has worked really well. This is basically showing why I think it's better to have more intake than exhaust, especially if you have a hot CPU. The Vision Compact isn't the only example though, I also did similar with the Corsair AIR 5400 case.
