    Cooling Issues, Think need redesign ?

    Just an update. I disconnected the long exhaust ducting from the fan leading out. And this have dropped my temps by 4.6c, pretty amazed, makes sense NOW ;) , but just never thought of the simple things, just thought it had to be an overly complex solution to a fairly straight forward problem...

But i had a similar setup to that only 2 months ago, and changed it to...
