    Hey Fellas,

    I recently moved my PC a mere five to its current resting position. However, I placed it under a desk. Could this be attributing to the higher temps I am seeing? Keep in mind the intake fans are located in the front. I was thinking that maybe air was not able to flow as well out the back so in return is causing less air to be pulled in.

    My bad, a mere five feet...Yes it is closed at the back. I need to find a table to put it on.

    Just make sure your PC is not resting on the floor and that it is a good distance away form the wall as well so that your exhaust fans have room to blow the hot air somewhere.
