Hi everyone,
With modern titles becoming more demanding, maintaining proper cooling has become increasingly important for overall system stability. Even small airflow adjustments can sometimes make a noticeable difference in temperature and noise levels.
I wanted to start a simple discussion about improving thermal management and airflow in a gaming desktop. Proper cooling is important to maintain stable performance during long gaming sessions and prevent thermal throttling.
I’m looking for advice on a few things:
Would appreciate practical tips and real world experiences.

I’m looking for advice on a few things:
- Is positive air pressure better for cooling and dust control?
- Do extra exhaust fans actually lower temperatures in real use?
- Are built in thermal modes enough, or is manual fan curve tuning better?
- Does GPU undervolting help reduce heat and noise noticeably?
- Is upgrading to liquid cooling worth it for sustained gaming loads?
Would appreciate practical tips and real world experiences.
