Seems like nowayfor ryzen and Intel CPU you have to turn some stuff off for better cooling and performance.

Yes air flow through the case is important and specially if water cooling. for all the air pockets move them out of loop, as you know water is heavier than air. if can get use of infared thermometer to check for hot spots. like heat sink not hot at all means the film is still on bottom.

Prevents hot air build-up in the case. Make sure all the case fans are 4-socket plugs rather than 3-prong...which means they can be controlled by the mainboard when plugged into the fan headers. Some cases come with 3-prong case fans which, although they'll be powered by the motherboard fan headers, they won't be controlled by the board. Edited January 22 by Timmah! Awards
