Thermaltake versa j21


i have cooler master 690 case but its already 6 years old and i thought i want to change new case which is phanteks p300 or thermaltakde versa j21 but im not sure the airflow is good. anyone already has any experience with p300 or versa j21?

my pc setup:

mobo: msi x99 raider
cpu: i7 5820k (air cooler)
gpu: gtx 780 gigabyte (stock cooler)
ram: 16gb


cm 690 temperature that i currently use:

CPU
idle: 45C
load: 69C

gpu
idle: 40C
load: 70C

thank you

wrong section...
ini desktop cusomization is WINDOWS desktop...

btw dat casing looks like garbage airflow...

is it? lol
im not really active here. also dont know how to change the section haha.

yeah....phanteks p300 only can put 2 front, 1 back, 1 top. compare to cm690 2 front, 1 side, 1 bottom, 2 top, 1 back. but i can only spend rm250 top

Im using Thermaltake Versa J21
i had tried two setup and ending up with the #1 for better airflow/cooler cpu/gpu/mobo

*take note that im using msi 1080ti duke oc, but underclock + set up max temp of 65c to reduce temp.
* only play dota & warframe
* most heavy on video editing / rendering
* test done after few frames of dota.

#1
120mm AIO radiator for CPU
Setup : 120mm AIO radiator for CPU as back exhaust, 2 top exhaust fan, 3 front intake fan

idle cpu : 35-40c
idle gpu : 38c
idle mobo : 40c
on cpu load only, cpu reach 60c.
on gpu load , gpu temp is around 55c, cpu up to 50c, mobo up to 50c.
manage to get good air flow to push out heat .
cpu goes up abit as radiator gets heat up.
crank up fan for back exhaust (radiator) does cool cpu up further
but case does not warm up as below #2.



#2
I am using 240mm AIO radiator for CPU.
Versa J21 can only mount 240mm radiator at front (top will definitely blocked by RAM height - Trident Z non rgb).

Tested a few combinations, all end up with the radiator got heat up when gpu on load.
Cant push heat out quickly enough, causing mobo + cp to heat up.

idle cpu : 34-38c
idle gpu : 38c
idle mobo : 40c
On CPU load : CPU goes up to 48-53degrees
On GPU load : GPU up to 60-65degrees , CPU goes up to 60degrees, mobo up to 60degrees
can feel the casing/tempered glass very hot
open up tempered glass reduce temp alot

tested combinations below, all about the same. best temp result without opening glass was #iii (as per above).
#i CPU 240mm AIO radiator as intake + 2 top exhaust + 1 back exhaust
#ii CPU 240mm AIO radiator as exhaust + 2 top exhaust + 1 back intake
#iii CPU 240mm AIO radiator as exhaust + 2 top exhaust + 1 back intake + 2 fan to cool mobo (as per photo below)
