Computer Specs: - OS: Windows 7 Professional 64 - Intel Core i5 2500K 3.30GHz.
This drop is out of the blue as I have been playing CSGO using my updated specs for the past 4 months without any issues. Temps aren't that he 92mm fan and small radiator are limiting and temps are similar to the 120mm air coolers. Yesterday, I noticed a significant FPS drop while playing Counter Strike Global Offensive. The Asetek 645LT is possible in the XPS 8940 case, but a 92mm liquid cooler is for SFF cases where there is no option for a 120mm AIO unit.

No liquid cooling folks unless you want to modify that rear 80mm fan location for a 120 mm fan on that H60 cooler.Īll you can do is update that rear exhaust fan to a 92mm fan and add an intake fan in that lower front position to help with airflow and update the CPU air cooler. The G5 front bezel had some nice slats for airflow.the XPS 8940 is a solid upper front bezel.no airflow in that location. cooling recommendation and test performed with CoolerMaster Hyper 212+ with Single Fan, this is the minimum recommendation for.
However, in their infinite wisdom they proceeded to block all the airflow through the upper part of the XPS 8940 front bezel. Move that 3.5" HDD mounted in the front location up to that top bracket and install the AIO. The Corsair H60 AIO CPU liquid cooler can mount in that front location and would have been great for CPU cooling. The fact that Dell created a location in the top front of the XPS 8940 chassis for a 3.5" HDD is great. This one fits as well without cutting or drilling, but is 92mm fan based: Cooler Master Hyper T2 No cutting required and no backplate removal.he removed the plastic pins and replaced them with M3 bolts.įit was tight under the side panel.needs to be verified that this would fit into the XPS 8940. 120mm fan based CPU cooler would be better than a 92mm fan based a nice video installing a Cooler Master 120mm Hyper TX3 EVO into a G5 5090 with a similar chassis.
