3.8 System Cooling
Five 4-cm counter-rotating fans provide the cooling for the system. (An optional 4-cm sixth
fan can be added.) Each fan unit is actually made up of two fans joined back-to-back, which
rotate in opposite directions. This counter-rotating action generates exceptional airflow and
works to dampen vibration levels.
Make sure the chassis top cover makes a good seal so the cooling air circulates properly
through the chassis.
