Hi

This is my RiG.
my cabinet have only 1-intake and 1-exhaust FAN (both 80mm). No way for 120mm.

Other time it has no problem, but the HOTTEST SUMMER WEEK, system gets quite hot, below ‘panic temp’ but, like - crosses the temp while loaded when normal weather even if it is not doing much…

My question -

Can I install 2 80mm fans, one-after-another in a ‘grid’ and set them as exhaust system ?

will it help ??

Well i am a real noob at this, but still i think installing only exhaust fans won’t do much good. You need to blow more air inside ur system (intake fan) for lowering temps.

connecting fans in serial is useless, it may even reduce overall flow

as monty said, keep one fan to push air in the cabby
