I understand, right? I usually have 2 to 3 filtered intakes before and then 3 exhausts, which means more exhaust than intake. Fans spin at similar speeds, of course—just not measured scientifically. In the last few cases I've dealt with, it was the "cube" or dual chamber designs. That might explain why it works well for me.

my thoughts align with what you said. the GPU is really struggling because of the exhaust, so it should get more airflow. if the power supply is right next to that fan, it might push warm air toward the GPU—though I’m not sure if that will help right now. i’m unsure why fans are placed at the bottom on small builds like this; most seem meant for visibility rather than real performance gains. the others are correctly positioned, but the rear fans still exist for other reasons.

Some supporters might switch sides, wouldn't you think? It would help if the original poster responded or shared a photo with fans turned off. Edited May 6, 2025 by leclod

they might actually work as reverse fans, though they seem like regular ones to me. I don’t believe a Taobao case comes with anything special, but hidden gems can be found on AliExpress if you're willing to put in the effort. My drawing was based on my guess, but I think it reflects how the fans are positioned right now. The case looks really cool, even if it’s a bit awkward, and it’s definitely stylish.

This was a complete setup, not just a single instance. Taobao offers nearly all the same products as Western retailers.

It's helpful to know, I haven't tried it before; I'm adding Taobao to my list of sites to browse along with AliExpress.

Are you based in China? Unless so, it's hard to imagine. Buying on Taobao won't be easy at all. Probably you don't have a Chinese bank account.

I'm from Italy, I noticed they're welcoming to Western nations, but I think thoroughly checking AliExpress might be the best option right now.

It doesn’t appear there’s any mention of Taobao expanding into Western markets. While platforms like Temu, Shein, and AliExpress do reach the West, Taobao remains primarily focused on China.

I mean different tastes and all that, but if we're going by pure looks something like this would be hard to beat for me... The GOAT! https://www.newegg.com/black-cooler-mast...r2tzEuN2uT And cooling ain't too bad actually (after all it's meant to be an airflow case , probably still better than the taobao fishtank! ). (no offense)
