Lol, quite a chain cooling setup there... the most efficient way to set that up it seems would be to have all of those fans blowing towards the power supply...

They are all blowing towards the power supply, but I've been told they might work better blowing towards the video card.



Having tried both, I can tell you that blowing towards power supply adds 1C to my CPU temps, and blowing towards the power supply adds 1C to my video card temps.



And since the video card usually runs hotter, I'm leaving it blowing towards the PSU.

You could always make a duct. Hardware store, buy s hort driver duct, cut to size. Mount on top of your cpu cooler, extend other end to psu fan. Looks like you would only need about 2-3" of the duct but it would make a great tunnel effect.

Lol, I really don't have the space there to do anything. Besides, the duct wouldn't really do anything, since hot air rises, and I've got yet another fan on the top acting as exhaust, so its not like its circulating hot air around.
